It's a Sundown Town. Don't Step Out of Line...

you'll be fine is all Jason is sayin'. It's a helpful warning that they do justice different.  Don't care 'bout your rights so much, or what it says "on the books", cuz they gots they people in power and they don't like the looks of you... Move along. Nothing racist, or out of the ordinary to see here... 

It's right there in the lyrics.  Helpful like:

Well, try that in a small townSee how far ya make it down the roadAround here, we take care of our ownYou cross that line, it won't take longFor you to find out, I recommend you don'tTry that in a small town... 

("Well you can go sleep at home tonight, if you can get up and walk away... Tell me, Who are YOU?")   

Fuck Around and Find Out in a small town, eh?
