Our Town

Lyrics

[Chorus] And you know the sun's settin' fast And just like they say, nothing good ever lasts Well, go on now and kiss it goodbye But hold on to your lover 'cause your heart's bound to die Go on now and say goodbye to our town, to our town Can't you see the sun's settin' down on our town, on our town? Goodnight [Verse 1] Up the street beside that red neon light That's where I met my baby on one hot summer night He was the tender and I ordered a beer It's been forty years and I'm still sittin' here [Chorus] But you know the sun's settin' fast And just like they say, nothing good ever lasts Well, go on now and kiss it goodbye But hold on to your lover 'cause your heart's bound to die Go on now and say goodbye to our town, to our town Can't you see the sun's settin' down on our town, on our town? Goodnight [Verse 2] It's here I had my babies and I had my first kiss I've walked down Main Street in the cold morning mist Over there is where I bought my first car It turned over once but then it never went far [Chorus] And I can see the sun's settin' fast And just like they say, nothing good ever lasts Well, go on now and kiss it goodbye But hold on to your lover 'cause your heart's bound to die Go on now and say goodbye to our town, to our town Can't you see the sun's settin' down on our town, on our town? Goodnight [Verse 3] I buried my Mama and I buried my Pa They sleep up the street beside the pretty brick wall I bring them flowers about every day But I just gotta cry when I think what they'd say [Chorus] If they could see how the sun's settin' fast And just like they say, nothing good ever lasts Well, go on now and kiss it goodbye But hold on to your lover 'cause your heart's bound to die Go on now and say goodbye to our town, to our town Can't you see the sun's settin' down on our town, on our town? Goodnight [Verse 4] Now I sit on the porch and watch the lightning bugs fly But I can't see too good, I got tears in my eyes I'm leaving tomorrow but I don't wanna go I love you, my town, you'll always live in my soul [Chorus] But I can see the sun's settin' fast And just like they say, nothing good ever lasts Well, go on, I gotta kiss you goodbye But I'll hold to my lover 'cause my heart's about to die Go on now and say goodbye to my town, to my town I can see the sun has gone down on my town, on my town Goodnight Goodnight
