| [00:05.90] |
This old town should've burned down in 1929 |
| [00:09.24] |
|
| [00:10.80] |
That's when we stood in line |
| [00:12.46] |
|
| [00:13.48] |
Waiting for our soup |
| [00:15.00] |
|
| [00:15.92] |
Swallowing our pride |
| [00:18.43] |
And This old town should've burn down in 1931 |
| [00:22.37] |
|
| [00:23.32] |
When the rain refused to come |
| [00:25.18] |
|
| [00:26.19] |
Air filled up our bellies, dust filled up our lungs |
| [00:30.76] |
And we thought our time had come |
| [00:34.17] |
|
| [00:35.68] |
And This old town was built by hand |
| [00:39.63] |
|
| [00:40.95] |
In the dust bowl of the motherland |
| [00:45.63] |
|
| [00:48.56] |
There must be rock beneath this sand |
| [00:52.11] |
|
| [00:53.24] |
Oh I'll be damned, this town still stands |
| [00:59.31] |
|
| [01:03.59] |
This old town should've burned down in 1944 |
| [01:07.31] |
|
| [01:08.37] |
When the last men went to war |
| [01:10.31] |
|
| [01:11.58] |
They came back different |
| [01:13.79] |
If they came back at all |
| [01:15.84] |
|
| [01:16.38] |
This old town should've burned down in 1956 |
| [01:20.26] |
|
| [01:21.51] |
That's when the twister hit |
| [01:22.95] |
|
| [01:23.91] |
And all our hopes were buried |
| [01:26.62] |
Beneath the boards and bricks |
| [01:28.69] |
And we almost called it quits |
| [01:32.18] |
|
| [01:33.66] |
This old town was built by hand |
| [01:37.97] |
|
| [01:38.94] |
In the dust bowl of the motherland |
| [01:43.97] |
|
| [01:46.55] |
There must be rock beneath this sand |
| [01:50.13] |
|
| [01:51.15] |
Oh I'll be damned, this town still stands |
| [01:57.16] |
|
| [02:01.45] |
Somewhere in the distance |
| [02:04.01] |
The city lights do shine |
| [02:05.67] |
|
| [02:06.25] |
The sidewalks gleam with neon dreams |
| [02:09.18] |
That call from time to time |
| [02:10.87] |
|
| [02:11.69] |
When my children's children |
| [02:13.68] |
Ask me why didn't I go |
| [02:15.72] |
|
| [02:16.49] |
They say the heart of any town |
| [02:18.26] |
|
| [02:19.13] |
Is the people that you've known |
| [02:21.54] |
They'll always call you home |
| [02:25.03] |
|
| [02:26.53] |
This old town was built by hand |
| [02:30.26] |
|
| [02:31.65] |
In the dust bowl of the motherland |
| [02:37.19] |
|
| [02:39.41] |
There must be rock beneath this sand |
| [02:42.87] |
|
| [02:43.94] |
Oh I'll be damned, this town still stands |
| [02:50.30] |
|
