Down in this Town
There's a cold hard rain
Comin' across the plain
Headin' this way
But it can't wash away
The sins you'll find today
Down in this town
There's ferry boats on the horizon
Sailin' away across the blue sound
Nothing changes but the seasons
And I can't find no reasons
To stay down in this town
You'll find a ragged union flag
You'll find trouble down the drag
If you dare to go there
Where life's like a free fare
On a train goin' nowhere
Down in this town
There's bright lights on the highway
But to these streets I am bound
There's a river headin' south
You can ride it to the mouth
Of where it flows
Where deadwood burns on the beach
And somewhere just out of reach
A soft and wailin' harp blows
But I can't fight anymore
My spirit's lost the war
Down in this town
Down in this town
The people train pullin' out
But there's no space to be found
Comin' across the plain
Headin' this way
But it can't wash away
The sins you'll find today
Down in this town
There's ferry boats on the horizon
Sailin' away across the blue sound
Nothing changes but the seasons
And I can't find no reasons
To stay down in this town
You'll find a ragged union flag
You'll find trouble down the drag
If you dare to go there
Where life's like a free fare
On a train goin' nowhere
Down in this town
There's bright lights on the highway
But to these streets I am bound
There's a river headin' south
You can ride it to the mouth
Of where it flows
Where deadwood burns on the beach
And somewhere just out of reach
A soft and wailin' harp blows
But I can't fight anymore
My spirit's lost the war
Down in this town
Down in this town
The people train pullin' out
But there's no space to be found
