"Famous in a Small Town"
==Music video==
A music video was released for the song, directed by [[Trey Fanjoy]]. The video features Lambert singing in a town square in [[Lebanon, Tennessee]] mixed with scenes from [[Shelbyville, Tennessee]]. The video's depicts people's everyday lives in a small town, including a diner and high school; all of these scenes are shot in black and white. One major part in the video is every person/event seen is taken as a magazine picture (ending with Lambert herself getting one taken). Lambert is also seen playing her guitar and singing on a red carpet with camera flashes, neon signs, and her band, to contrast with the small town image, and is shot in color rather than black and white. This is her second video to be shot in both black and white and in color, after "New Strings" in 2006. In Lambert's own words, "Famous in a Small Town is really, (really) how it was growing up in [[Lindale, Texas|Lindale]]."<ref>{{cite web | title=Interview (YouTube channel) |url=
