J. Stricklin - Nothingtown Lyrics

I remember afternoons
Selling papers after school
A gig that taught me the value of my time

Smell of small town in the air
I could smell it in dads clothes and hair
When he came home after work at night

As I look around, I always found
Just another place to live this nothing town

Well we moved like gypsies from town to town
Dont become too attached youll let yourself down
New kid in school, Ive been all my life

Theres an independence that comes to be
From moving around so much you see
You learn its not so hard to leave things behind

And, as I look around, I always found
Just another place to live this nothing town

And, as I look around, its just another town
Just another place to leave this nothing town

And it seems my lifes been moving in directions I cant tell
And I dont know how long Im here to stay

For those nothing towns I am thankful for memories and good times
For they made me who I am today
