Well if you ever want to get depressed just come to this town
|
Nothing to do from dinner to breakfast in this town
|
Four street lights and one old grocery I ain't long to stay here no siree
|
I'm bound to catch the next greyhound leavin' this town
|
I've seen towns but no town's as bad as this town
|
It don't take long to feel lowdown in this town
|
Soon cotton's gone opened up and I'm gonna pick it
|
Just long enough to make enough to buy myself a ticket
|
I'm bound to catch the next greyhound leavin' this town
|
Here I stand on the dusty road leavin' this town
|
A hoping that dog ain't got a full load leavin' this town
|
The state built new routes just for travel they got the pavement and we got the gravel
|
That's the reason everythin's dying around here in this town
|
Well there's lots of sunshine very little hay in this town
|
The mail don't run but every other day in this town
|
Four street lights and one old grocery I ain't long to stay here no siree
|
I'm bound to catch the next greyhound leavin' this town
|
Well we don't reap we don't sow in this town
|
Things are so bad that the weeds won't grow in this town
|
One two three four five six seven this town can go to one place I'm goin' to heaven
|
I'm bound to catch the next greyhound leavin' this town
