Ricky Gunn - "King Of This Town"

Written by Dan Hannon & Emily Lynch. Produced by Dan Hannon. Released in November 2014 by New Canvas Entertainment from Ricky Gunn's debut release.

I remember being 15 years young
Thinking there's nothing I hadn't done
Star of the team, king of the town
So proud to be my Daddy's son
Blonde hair, blue eyes, just a son of a gun
Living the dream, leading the crowd
Whoah, whoah
The old nice guy she's creeping up slow
Whoah, whoah
That buzzing in the air kinda sounds like home

Our little town had a little stop light
One ball game every Friday night
The Chevron sign's always burning bright
Whoah, whoah
And we were holding hands
Pickup truck and my old 6 string
Kicking back watching everybody sing
Man that was better than anything
Whoah, whoah
We were making plans
Nothing but cornfields for miles around
I was the king of this town

The years disappeared, man I miss those days
Moved on, lost touch, we turned the page
Who I am then ain't who I am now
It's all better left as a memory
I've got a whole lot of life left in front in me
Gonna start again and turn it around
Whoah, whoah
You gotta love it when the night moves slow
Whoah, whoah
Like hearing Pearl Jam on the radio
Our little town had a little stop light
One ball game every Friday night
The Chevron sign's always burning bright
Whoah, whoah
And we were holding hands
Pickup truck and my old 6 string
Kicking back watching everybody sing
Man that was better than anything
Whoah, whoah
We were making plans
Nothing but cornfields for miles around
I was the king of this town

I was the king of this town, yeah
Our little town had a little stop light
One ball game every Friday night
The Chevron sign's always burning bright
Whoah, whoah
And we were holding hands
Pickup truck and my old 6 string
Kicking back watching everybody sing
Man that was better than anything
Whoah, whoah
We were making plans
Long driveways and gravel roads
Summer night skies where the stars were slow
Starting up the band playing our first show
whoah, whoah
Nothing but cornfields for miles around
Not a soul around here remembers now
I was the king of this town

I was the king of this town
