Own a piece of John Mellencamp history
Released in 1985, “Small Town” became one of John Mellencamp’s defining songs and a standout from his acclaimed album Scarecrow. Written by Mellencamp about his own experiences growing up in Seymour, Indiana, the song reached No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 and captured themes of home, community and staying connected to where you come from. Decades later, it remains one of the most recognizable songs in his catalog and an enduring example of his distinctly American songwriting. This handwritten lyric sheet offers a rare connection to John Mellencamp and the songwriting behind one of his most memorable songs.
