This town I live in ain't fit for man or beast
|
This town I live in ain't fit for man or beast
|
There's a man down here, a man down there
|
They all want to rob you or take you somewhere
|
This town I live in ain't fit for man or beast
|
I'm going down to the store, boy
|
And get myself a dog
|
I'm going down to the store, boy
|
And get myself a dog
|
I'm going to chain, chain, chain him
|
Up to my fence
|
Make him bark, bark, bark
|
Understand my French
|
I'm going down to the store, boy
|
And get myself a dog
|
If I had a hundred dollars
|
I'd buy myself a gun
|
If I had a hundred dollars
|
I'd buy myself a gun
|
I'd stick it out the door
|
And wait for an attack
|
I'll need somebody just to cover my back
|
If I had a hundred dollars
|
I'd buy myself a gun
|
The moral of the story
|
You better watch where you go
|
The moral of the story, boy
|
You better watch out where you go
|
They'll get you in the morning
|
They'll get you at night
|
Some, then want to rob you
|
But most, they want to fight
|
This town I live in, I got to go
|
This town I live in
|
This town I live in, I got to go
|
