《Break Up in a Small Town》秉承了Sam Hunt在熱單《Take Your Time》中的獨特風格，歌曲的開頭採用了大段念白；然而初聽略顯冗長的48秒之後是非常出色的副歌部分，總體來說是非常耐聽的一首歌。
歌曲歌詞
I knew I'd see her around
我知道我會見到你的
I'd be at some party, she'd show up and I'd be walking out
我知道你會出現在派對里,我便悄悄的離開
Or across some parking lot hiding behind her sister
或者在停車場見到你躲在你姐姐的身後
I'd look up, she'd be at the red light beside me
當我抬頭看時,發現她在紅燈旁
In that white Maxima with the sticker on the back
在那輛白色的馬西瑪的車裡面
I'd act like I didn't see her
我假裝熟視無睹
We'd pay at the same pumps
我們在同一個加油站加油
Flip through the same stations
瀏覽著相通的電台
And slow down for the same curves
在同一個健身房
Run around with the same crowds
每天走著同樣的路
We just needed some time
我想我們只是需要一步一步慢慢來
She could get on with her life and I'd get on with mine
大家的生活不存在交集
Thought I would be fine, heh, but maybe not
我也許會過得很好,亦或很差
I knew she'd find a way to get over me
我想她會把我忘記得一乾二淨
But I'd never thought that...
可我永遠都不會..
she would get down with somebody I know
她和我認識的一個人開始了新戀情
I guess that's just how it goes
我想這就是所謂因果輪迴
When you break up in a small town
當你在一個小鎮分手
I see our friends and they put on a show
我知道我們的朋友都在做戲哄騙我
Like they don't want me to know
他們不想我知道，不想我傷心
So they give me the go-around
所以他們叫我四處閒逛
But there's only so many streets, so many lights
那些走過的街道,那些熟悉的街燈
I swear it's like I can't even leave my house
我差點以為好像我從來沒有離開過
I should've known all along
我本就該知道這一切
You gotta move or move on
你離開了我會活得更好
When you break up in a small town
當我們分手了
For a while I guess they were keeping it low-key
我猜過他們會偷偷地掩藏著秘密
But now it's like these county lines closing in on me
但是現在就像這鄉村的道路(曾經的記憶)把我困住了
I see 'em everywhere together
我看見我們曾經的影子
And it's hitting a little too close to home
好像唱著“你離家太近了”
She's so far gone, she just didn't go far
她已經不會回來了,但她從未離開這地方
She was over me before the grass grew back where she used to park her car
她忘記我的速度比她曾經停車處的野草長得要快
She's leaving those same marks in someone else's yard
她卻到處留情
In someone else's arms right down the road
此時此刻她正在別人的懷抱里
And I never thought that...
但是我卻懵然不知
she would get down with somebody I know
她和我認識的一個人開始了新戀情
I guess that's just how it goes
我想這就是所謂因果輪迴
When you break up in a small town
當你在一個小鎮分手
I see our friends and they put on a show
我知道我們的朋友都在做戲哄騙我
Like they don't want me to know
他們不想我知道，不想我傷心
So they give me the go-around
所以他們叫我四處閒逛
But there's only so many streets, so many lights
那些走過的街道,那些熟悉的街燈
I swear it's like I can't even leave my house
我差點以為好像我從來沒有離開過
I should've known all along
我本應該知道
You gotta move or move on
你會離開我,活得更好
When you break up in a small town
當你在這小鎮分手的時候
Your mailbox is seven minutes from mine
我家到你家僅僅7分鐘的距離
And I drive into town sometimes I see you sittin' there with him
我有時候特意兜進鎮裡,看見你依靠在他身旁
And I wanna jump out
我真想跳出車
I wanna fight
打他一頓
I wanna say, "... that guy!" but I can't
我想說,你個xx!但是我卻沒勇氣
It's my fault, I let her go
我放手讓她走是我的錯
I never thought that...
我絕對都沒想到有今天這樣
she would get down with somebody I know
她和我認識的一個人開始了新戀情
I guess that's just how it goes
我覺得這就是所謂因果輪迴
When you break up in a small town
當你在一個小鎮分手
I see our friends and they put on a show
我知道我們的朋友都在做戲哄騙我
Like they don't want me to know
他們不想我知道，不想我傷心
So they give me the go-around
所以他們叫我四處閒逛
But there's only so many streets, so many lights
那些走過的街道,那些熟悉的街燈
I swear it's like I can't even leave my house
我差點以為好像我從來沒有離開過
I should've known all along
我本應該知道這一切
You gotta move or move on
你會忘記我繼續生活
When you break up in a small town
從你我在這小鎮分手開始
