Uh-Oh

It’s a tiny town, and you can hang around
With me
And it’s a tiny town, and ev’rybody knows what
You been doin’
’Cause it’s a tiny town, teeny weeny town
Tiny town, tiny town
And ev’ry little town, if you look around
Is a tiny town, tiny town, tiny town 


Be careful my darlin’
What you say and do
The shit that you make
Comes right back to you 


And the whole wide world is a tiny town
Full of tiny ideas
With each tiny heart pumpin’ up and down
Come by tiny with me 


Such a tiny town, but we have trouble
Livin’ with each other
Some would knock you down
Someone else would like to steal your lover 


It’s a tiny town and it’s enough to make you
Lose your mind
And mother nature say — she don’t play that way
So quit your cryin’


Mama still loves you
When you go astray
You don’t need to push
Her in her grave 


In my tiny mind you are tiny too
I’ll be tiny tonight
For each tiny me there’s a tiny you
Close your tiny town eyes 


And the birds sweetly singin’
In the tiny town trees
And the animals ask what we’re doin’
It’s as plain as can be 


I see your sadness
Like birds in the air
I see them all
Flying away 


In each tiny heart in this tiny world
Is a tiny desire
And each tiny boy and each tiny girl
Close their tiny town eyes 


And the whole wide world is a tiny town
Full of tiny ideas
With our tiny hearts pumpin’ up and down
Come be tiny with me
