This Town |
| It’s closing time the boys are all together at the bar |
| Staring in their glasses |
| Looks like another layoff at the yard |
| Yesterday I heard union hall come down |
| They hit it with a wrecking ball |
| And they try but nothing changes in this town |
| Cap in hand stood in line |
| Your family ties are the chains that bind |
| The endless wheel goes round and round |
| Chances are you’ll never leave this town |
| Oh oh no |
| Like a river now the empty streets are flooded out with rain |
| It’s falling on the playground |
| While the kids get wet playing the same old games |
| Locked away so many things remind them of war |
| They tap the pavement with their canes |
| The good old days ain’t so good no more |
