The ol' home town is sure in trouble it looks like it must have doubled It's citysize since I been gone The Neighbors all are full of killing two million people willing To die for something they have never known The city streets of drunks junk and stone A heaven made in hell they call their home Yes it's gone like the life of a child when it turn its back on your mind Tommorrow has no home sweet home look what they've done to mind It's just faded into time [ Fiddle ] Grandfather's watch he gave me is just another mem'ry That I have kept the way it always was And ever since he died it just wont run I always knew I was his favorite one That old house we used to live in the root is falling in Like every other one along the block It took twenty years to pay and ten to rot That says it's all just a better off forgot Yes it's gone like the life of a child...
