She came from trailer trash
She had a tramp stamp
She had eyes as bright
As an inspection lamp
That shone away the shadows
From my soul

And I think I fell
In love with her
When she left me with
My own coffee to stir
And scooped all my change
Into her gratuities bowl

So I took a sip
And I asked for a date
And she shrugged
And said that she finished at eight
And I was just about to
Ask her where she'd like to go

When a cop's hand on my shoulder
Deep voice from behind
Said "finish your coffee
Let's see if we can find
Your way out of town
Before the sun goes down
Don't be slow"

I found myself in a Small Town Movie
Walking around in fictional shoes
Found myself in a Small Town Movie
Knew all the lines and all of the cues

So of course I had to fight that cop
Who was her brother
Who treated her
Like some surrogate mother
While their widowed father
Stayed drunk in his wheelchair

Then we picked each other up
And brushed off the dust
Went for a beer
As such men must
And put the world to rights
And agreed life wasn't fair

Meanwhile the ex-con ex-husband
And father of her daughter
Pulled out his gun
And said that he oughta
See us all in hell
If she didn't come home like she was told

So imagine the scene
In the town's main square
With all us characters
Standing there
Waiting for the climax to unfold

I found myself in a Small Town Movie
Walking around in fictional shoes
Found myself in a Small Town Movie
Knew all the lines and all of the cues

But life ain't like the movies
It never runs so smoothly
I blunder and I bluster
And such times you see right through me
And why you have to love me
Well I don't have a clue
But you do
Like I love you

So now we need
To finish our story
Do we all go out
In a blaze of glory
Or is there a happy ending
To be found

Remember where we left them
In the middle of the street
Can someone come along
Who can tie it up neat
Well, it turns out our girl's
The kind of girl
You want to have around

Well she spit in his eye
And she gave him what for
While brother got behind him
With a two-by-four
And put out his lights
But only temporarily

So the con gets a cell
And the cop gets respect
The couple get each other
Even dad stops getting wrecked
And the town gets the wedding
We all wanted to see

I found myself in a Small Town Movie
Walking around in fictional shoes
Found myself in a Small Town Movie
Knew all the lines and all of the cues
I found myself in a Small Town Movie
Walking around in fictional shoes
Found myself in a Small Town Movie
Knew all the lines and all of the cues
Knew all the lines and all of the cues
Knew all the lines and all of the cues
