Goodbye Shanty Town
View ArtistLyrics
In a shanty town, every morning is a gift When the roof above your head is only makeshift And the only thing you own is the soil in which you stand Let me take you by the hand Through a shanty town, when the seasons are in change They can burn to the ground or blow you far across the plains If you see a clipper ship heading up towards the moon With your name above the bow, then the time is surely now To say goodbye, shanty town Say goodbye to a shanty town In a shanty town called oblivion There are miles of shapeless shacks with people living If you hear familiar sounds as you crawl from bow to bow It's the voices of the world trying to tell you who you are So say goodbye, shanty town Say goodbye to a shanty town Say goodbye, shanty town Say goodbye to a shanty town We are all performances In a circus in the sky Spinning 'round and 'round and 'round Now the time has come to try To say goodbye, shanty town Say goodbye to a shanty town Say goodbye, shanty town Say goodbye to a shanty town Say goodbye, shanty town Say goodbye to a shanty town Say goodbye, shanty town
