Metropolis |
| Well they finally put that red light up in the heart of town |
| Took the stop sign down, it was shot up anyhow |
| One night I ran right through it, in my Chevrolet |
| Both police cars came, but I got away |
| It was a boomtown back in '62 |
| Till the coal ran out and a drought came through |
| And they dammed the river, that we all used to fish |
| Population 405 and I made it 404 one night |
| And left the city limit sign layin' in the ditch |
| Run plumb over it, leavin' Metropolis |
| Well, I found myself in a big high-rise with a concrete yard |
| It ain’t safe after dark, guess this ol' boy drove too far |
| Met a girl, fell in love, got married and she’s due in May |
| Says we’re gonna need more space, I said I know just the place |
| We can walk down to the country store |
| And we won’t even have to lock our door |
| We can still get air and water there for free |
| She said that sounds good to me |
| It was a boomtown back in '62 |
| Till the coal ran out and a drought came through |
| And they dammed the river, that we all used to fish |
| Population 404 and when we pull in it’ll be 3 more |
| And there’s a city limit sign layin' in the ditch |
| That I need to fix, back in Metropolis |
| I’m almost in Metropolis |
| I’m back in Metropolis |
