The Place We Grew Up In
The grass has grown through the trailer wheels
The weeds are now knee high
And the shed is slowly falling down
No more parties out on the veranda
No more living for today
All that's left in a sad old dyin' town
It's the rack it's the ruin
It's the place that we grew up in
Thought it would last forever
It's the place that made us
Oh and it never betrayed us
But now it's nothing whatsoever
Once lights shone out so very, very bright
Stars came out to play at night
You really should have been there
But that was many years ago
Nothing left of that there now
A place now devoid of any care
It's the rack it's the ruin
It's the place the we grew up in
Thought it would last forever
It's the place that made us
Oh and it never betrayed us
But now it's nothing whatsoever
It's the rack it's the ruin
It's the place that we grew up in
Thought it would last forever
It's the place that made us
Oh and it never betrayed us
But now it's nothing whatsoever
The weeds are now knee high
And the shed is slowly falling down
No more parties out on the veranda
No more living for today
All that's left in a sad old dyin' town
It's the rack it's the ruin
It's the place that we grew up in
Thought it would last forever
It's the place that made us
Oh and it never betrayed us
But now it's nothing whatsoever
Once lights shone out so very, very bright
Stars came out to play at night
You really should have been there
But that was many years ago
Nothing left of that there now
A place now devoid of any care
It's the rack it's the ruin
It's the place the we grew up in
Thought it would last forever
It's the place that made us
Oh and it never betrayed us
But now it's nothing whatsoever
It's the rack it's the ruin
It's the place that we grew up in
Thought it would last forever
It's the place that made us
Oh and it never betrayed us
But now it's nothing whatsoever
