    This is a song about the classic "high school hero", the guy we all loved to hate. Okay, okay, a lot of the song is about me, especially the part about my parents interupting me when... ahh, just listen to the song.

    Story Behind the Song
    I wrote this about the guy we all knew in high school... although I'll have to admit that some of it is about me

    Lyrics
    The cops chase us around on a Friday night,
    There's not much crime here, and I guess that's alright.
    I've got a girlfriend, we watch movies on the tube,
    It's pretty cool except my parents, are sitting here too.

    ...in my little town

    I'm playin' football, and I got a letter jacket too,
    I wear it everywhere so people know I'm cool.
    I cry when we lose, but I party when we win,
    I'm always the star, you see, I'm the best that's ever been.

    ...in my little town

    Soon I'll go to college,
    Things may get a little strange.
    I'll admit I'm kinda nervous,
    I'm scared to have to change.

    Who will pack my lunch?
    Or make sure I'm okay?
    What if I'm not happy?
    Why can't I just stay?

    It's 20 years gone by and my kids they go to school,
    Although I try, it seems they never think I'm cool.
    I know I'd show them, if I only got the chance,
    That's why this Friday, I'm signing up, to chaperone their dance.

    My high school year book it could use a little glue,
    I've got some memories, but those are fading too.
    I've got a good job, I've tasted fortune and fame,
    But what I wouldn't give for just one more high school football game.

    it's my little town.
    it's my little town.
