Nanci Griffith - This Old Town

 (versiyon 1)
Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   
This old town should've burned down in 1929

That's when we stood in line

Waiting for our soup

Swallowing our pride



This old town should've burn down in 1931

When the rain refused to come

Air filled up our bellies, dust filled up our lungs

And we thought our time had come



This old town was built by hand

In the dust bowl of the motherland

There must be rock beneath this sand

Oh' I'll be damned, this town still stands



This old town should've burned down in 1944

When the last men went to war

They came back different

If they came back at all



This old town should've burned down in 1956

That's when the twister hit

And all our hopes were buried

Beneath the boards and bricks

And we almost called it quits



This old town was built by hand

In the dust bowl of the motherland

There must be rock beneath this sand

Oh' I'll be damned, this town still stands



Somewhere in the distance

The city lights do shine

The sidewalks gleam with neon dreams

That call from time to time



When my children's children

Ask me why didn't I go

They say the heart of any town

Is the people that you've known

They'll always call you home



This old town was built by hand

In the dust bowl of the motherland

There must be rock beneath this sand

Oh I'll be damned, this town still stands
