Our Town lyrics

CHORUS: And ya know the sun`s setin` fast
And just like they say, nothing good ever lasts
Go on now and kiss it goodbye
But hold on to your lover `cause your heart`s bound to die
Go on now and say goodbye to our town, to our town
Can`t you see the sun`s settin` down on our town, on our town
Goodnight

Up the street beside that red neon light
That`s where I met my baby on one hot summer night
He was the tender and I ordered the beer
It`s been forty years and I`m still sittin` here

CHORUS

It`s here I had my babies and I had my first kiss
I`ve walked down Main Street in the cold morning mist
Over there is where I bought my first car
It turned over once but then it never went far

CHORUS

I`ve buried my Mama and I`ve buried my Pa
They sleep up the street beside that pretty brick wall
I bring `em flowers about everyday
But I just gotta cry when I think what they`d say

CHORUS
If they could see how the sun`s setting fast...

Now I sit on the porch and watch the lightnin` bugs fly
But I can`t see too good, I got tears in my eyes
I`m leavin` tomorrow but I don`t wanna go
I love you, my town, you`ll always live in my soul

But I can see the sun`s seting fast
And just like they say, nothing good ever lasts
Go on, I gotta kiss you goodbye
But I`ll hold on to my lover `cause my heart`s `bout to die
Go on now and say goodbye to my town, to my town
I can see the sun has gone down on my town, on my town
Goodnight, Goodnight
