Elton John - This Town lyrics

Music by elton john

Lyrics by bernie taupin

Available on the album ice on fire

It's closing time the boys are all together at the bar

Staring in their glasses

Looks like another layoff at the yard

Yesterday I heard union hall come down

They hit it with a wrecking ball

And they try but nothing changes in this town

Cap in hand stood in line

Your family ties are the chains that bind

The endless wheel goes round and round

Chances are you'll never leave this town

Oh oh no

Like a river now the empty streets are flooded out with rain

It's falling on the playground

While the kids get wet playing the same old games

Locked away so many things remind them of war

They tap the pavement with their canes

The good old days ain't so good no more
