| David Rovics - Used To Be A City Lyrics: | ||
I was young once It was a long time ago Things were different then I thought that you should know This old building Was once a factory We made Stetsons Your grandpa and me It wasn't easy but at least Life was going down There used to be a city in this town This rusted railyard Had a hotel and a couple of stores We had good times here Between the wars It wasn't paradise But there was music in the street Right there is where your grandparents First had a chance to meet They got married in that church I can still see her wedding gown There used to be a city in this town http://www.free-lyrics.org/David-Rovics/71110-Used-To-Be-A-City.html When the change came It started one by one First the layoffs Then the factory was gone Then came the highways The suburbs and Wal-Mart That was the final blow That tore this place apart But it seems like just last year When there were people all around There used to be a city in this town The census says there's people here But I think someone's confused Just look out at these sidewalks They're not being used You know when a city dies It doesn't die with grace It just becomes a ruin Shouting this was once the place Guess it's time to leave But I don't know where I'd be bound There used to be a city in this town View more David Rovics Song Lyrics: David Rovics - Black Flag Flying Lyrics David Rovics - I'm A Better Anarchist Than You Lyrics David Rovics - Saint Patrick Battalion Lyrics David Rovics - The Draft Is Coming Lyrics David Rovics - Minimum Wage Strike Lyrics David Rovics - Shut Them Down Lyrics David Rovics - Fallujah Lyrics David Rovics - After The Revolution Lyrics David Rovics - Hiroshima Lyrics David Rovics - The Death Of Rachel Corrie Lyrics |
