[Roger Miller - This TownRoger Miller lyrics]
Depressed just come to this town
Nothing to do from dinner to
Breakfast in this town
Four street lights and one old grocery I
Ain't long to stay here no siree
I'm bound to catch the next
Greyhound leavin' this town
I've seen towns but no town's
As bad as this town
It don't take long to feel
Lowdown in this town
Soon cotton's gone opened up and
I'm gonna pick it
Just long enough to make enough
To buy myself a ticket
I'm bound to catch the next
Greyhound leavin' this town
Here I stand on the dusty
Road leavin' this town
A hoping that dog ain't got a
Full load leavin' this town
The state built new routes
Just for travel they
Got the pavement and we got the gravel
That's the reason everythin's dying around
Here in this town
Well there's lots of sunshine very
Little hay in this town
The mail don't run but every
Other day in this town
Four street lights and one old grocery I
Ain't long to stay here no siree
I'm bound to catch the next
Greyhound leavin' this town
Well we don't reap we don't sow in this town
Things are so bad that the weeds
Won't grow in this town
One two three four five six
Seven this town can
Go to one place I'm goin' to heaven
I'm bound to catch the next
Greyhound leavin' this town (pa pa pa pa)
