Small town blue-eyed girl, she used to march with the band
Her daddy worked for the state, her mama clapped her hands
Just look around this broke dog town, 
There must be something here, you need us to face your fear

Chorus
As God is her witness and mama still draws breath, 
Amy’s never leavin’ Strongstown

All her church friends say, it’s time to be a wife
Listen what we say, submission is the life
Just look around this broke dog town,
There must be someone here, you need us to face your fear

Chorus
As God is her witness and mama still draws breath, 
Amy’s never leavin’ Strongstown

She’s 38 now, still works at the diner
Lives beside her folks, waiting for love to find her
Mama always said be happy where you are
If you do this my child, you won’t have to go too far…

Chorus
