Brendon Walmsley – Small Town Superstar lyrics

Playing outback hotel bars and living for his songs
Jonno's dream of making it would not last long
When Linda had the second baby Jonno made a choice
So what if the world would never hear his voice

'Cause he sings after dinner for his three biggest fans
And right there in the kitchen the kids and Linda dance

He's a small town superstar stayed at home and made his mark
Everything a hero ought to be
You'll never see his name in lights
Make headline news but that's alright
Hey Jonno I know what you are
A small town superstar

Billy's left arm action put his cricket team on top
People said the SCG was his next stop
Last night of his senior year there was an accident
The next day Billy learned he'd never walk again

Now he's an old man in a wheelchair without bitterness or blame
Down at the local oval teaching kids about the game

He's a small town superstar stayed at home and made his mark
Everything a hero ought to be
You'll never see his name in lights
Make headline news but that's alright
Hey Billy I know what you are
A small town superstar

That's just two examples there's at least a million more
Like the two job Dad across the street the stay home Mum next door

They're a small town superstar stayed at home and made their mark
Everything a hero ought to be
You'll never see their name in lights
Make headline news but that's alright
'Cause I know and you know who they are
A small town superstar
