What Did Jason Aldean Say On ‘Try That In A Small Town?’

Jason Aldean’s recent song, “Try That In A Small Town,” is facing controversy for both the song’s intense pro-gun content and music video. Lyrically, the country singer reacts to various acts with his own apparent threat: that those in a “small town” will take care of you with their guns.

The track opens with the lines, “Sucker punch somebody on a sidewalk / Carjack an old lady at a red light / Pull a gun on the owner of a liquor store / Ya think it’s cool, well, act a fool if ya like / Cuss out a cop, spit in his face / Stomp on the flag and light it up / Yeah, ya think you’re tough.”

“Try that in a small town / See how far ya make it down the road / ‘Round here, we take care of our own / You cross that line, it won’t take long / For you to find out, I recommend you don’t,” Aldean then goes on to warn in the chorus.

Other later lyrics in the song include “Got a gun that my granddad gave me / They say one day they’re gonna round up / Well, that sh*t might fly in the city, good luck” and “Full of good ol’ boys, raised up right / If you’re looking for a fight / Try that in a small town.”

As some have pointed out, Aldean was performing during the Las Vegas mass shooting in 2017, where over 400 people were wounded.
