In the ghost town
|
Inside of my heart
|
All the downtown
|
Is parking lots
|
At the drug store
|
At 9th & Payne
|
They stock the bitter pills
|
They say
|
Will we see you again next Tuesday?
|
What more can we do for you, Mr Johnson, sir?
|
Pass the word around them Golden Pools
|
I've been elected King of the Fools
|
At the barber shop
|
They never close
|
They'll cut your hair
|
They'll shine your suit
|
Ya look fine, mistah
|
Ya look sharp
|
We can tell how well you play the part!
|
Pass the word around them Golden Pools
|
|
I've been elected King of the Fools
|
In the ghost town
|
Inside of my heart
|
All the downtown
|
Is parking lots
|
And in the rain the streets are on fire...
|
|
At the city hall the mayor gives away the key
|
He says
|
Look around
|
Make yourself at home
|
Everything we do for you is our pleasure!
|
Pass the word around them Golden Pools
|
I've been elected King of the Fools
|
In the ghost town
|
Inside of my heart
|
All your downtown
|
Is parking lots
|
