    Read the lyrics to the actual song again

    Edit: the relevant verse is emphasized

    Sucker punch somebody on a sidewalk Carjack an old lady at a red light Pull a gun on the owner of a liquor store Ya think it’s cool, well, act a fool if ya like

    Cuss out a cop, spit in his face Stomp on the flag and light it up Yeah, ya think you’re tough

    Well, try that in a small town See how far ya make it down the road Around here, we take care of our own You cross that line, it won’t take long For you to find out, I recommend you don’t Try that in a small town

    Got a gun that my granddad gave me They say one day they’re gonna round up Well, that shit might fly in the city, good luck

    Try that in a small town See how far ya make it down the road Around here, we take care of our own You cross that line, it won’t take long For you to find out, I recommend you don’t Try that in a small town

    Full of good ol’ boys, raised up right If you’re looking for a fight Try that in a small town Try that in a small town

    Try that in a small town See how far ya make it down the road Around here, we take care of our own You cross that line, it won’t take long For you to find out, I recommend you don’t Try that in a small town

    Try that in a small town Ooh-ooh Try that in a small town
