<strong>‘No I cannot forget where it is that I come from ...’</strong>

‘No I cannot forget where it is that I come from ...’

‘... I cannot forget the people who love me...’

‘... Yeah, I can be myself here in this small town ...’

‘... And people let me be just what I want to be.’

— John Mellencamp, “Small Town”
