about

Originally from "The Happiest Girl in the Whole Wide Street" (2008). See video clip shot in Elmore here: youtu.be/wbcqGFDqgqU.
P.s. the song is actually about nearby Colbinabbin.

lyrics

Love is hard in a small town
You've got to call on friends
Just to sleep around
But I know that after you've had
Everyone in town
You'll come back to me
Next time around
On the main street walking
And I see your handsome face
In the morning sun and I
Have forgotten many things
In my lifetime but I
Have no intention to
Forget the time that you
Said come back to my place
This time around
You don't look so bad let's
Try it out
And I say
Love is hard in a small town
