<pre><font size='+2'>WHEN I FIRST CAME TO TOWN lyrics NICK CAVE</font><br>When I first came to town<br />
 All the people gathered round<br />
 They bought me drinks<br />
 Lord, how they quickly changed their tune<br />
 <br />
 <br />
 When I first came to town<br />
 People took me round from end to end<br />
 Like someone may take round a friend<br />
 O how quickly they changed their tune<br />
 <br />
 <br />
 Suspicion and dark murmurs surround me<br />
 Everywhere I go they confound me<br />
 As though the blood on my hands<br />
 Is there for every citizen to see<br />
 <br />
 <br />
 O sweet Jesus<br />
 There is no turning back<br />
 There is always one more town<br />
 A little further down the track<br />
 <br />
 <br />
 And from my window, across the tracks<br />
 I watch the juicers burn their fires<br />
 And in that light<br />
 Their faces leer at me<br />
 How I wish they`d just let me be<br />
 <br />
 <br />
 When I first came to town<br />
 Their favours were for free<br />
 Now even the doors of the whores of this town<br />
 Are closed to me<br />
 <br />
 <br />
 I search the mirror<br />
 And I try to see<br />
 Why the people of this town<br />
 Have washed their hands of me<br />
 <br />
 <br />
 O sweet Jesus<br />
 There is no turning back<br />
 There is always one more town<br />
 A little further down the track<br />
 <br />
 <br />
 O lord, every god-damn turn I take<br />
 I fear the noose, I fear the stake<br />
 For there is no bone<br />
 They did not break<br />
 In all the towns I`ve been before<br />
 <br />
 <br />
 Well those that sin against me are snuffed out<br />
 I know from every day that I live<br />
 God-damn the day that I was born<br />
 The night that forced me from the womb<br />
 And god-damn this town<br />
 For I am leaving now<br />
 But one day I will return<br />
 And the people of this town will surely see<br />
 Just how quickly the tables turn<br />
 <br />
 <br />
 O sweet Jesus<br />
 This really is the end<br />
 There is always one more town<br />
 A little further round the end<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/when_i_first_came_to_town_lyrics-nick_cave.html" target='_blank'>WHEN I FIRST CAME TO TOWN lyrics NICK CAVE</a></pre>

When I first came to town
All the people gathered round
They bought me drinks
Lord, how they quickly changed their tune

When I first came to town
People took me round from end to end
Like someone may take round a friend
O how quickly they changed their tune

Suspicion and dark murmurs surround me
Everywhere I go they confound me
As though the blood on my hands
Is there for every citizen to see

O sweet Jesus
There is no turning back
There is always one more town
A little further down the track

And from my window, across the tracks
I watch the juicers burn their fires
And in that light
Their faces leer at me
How I wish they`d just let me be

When I first came to town
Their favours were for free
Now even the doors of the whores of this town
Are closed to me

I search the mirror
And I try to see
Why the people of this town
Have washed their hands of me

O sweet Jesus
There is no turning back
There is always one more town
A little further down the track

O lord, every god-damn turn I take
I fear the noose, I fear the stake
For there is no bone
They did not break
In all the towns I`ve been before

Well those that sin against me are snuffed out
I know from every day that I live
God-damn the day that I was born
The night that forced me from the womb
And god-damn this town
For I am leaving now
But one day I will return
And the people of this town will surely see
Just how quickly the tables turn

O sweet Jesus
This really is the end
There is always one more town
A little further round the end
