Lyrics

There goes another plane roaring over our heads Yeah, I miss the days when we lived in a quiet town Where people walked how they talked And they meant when they said You got a friend you can count on Guess me and you, we're a fortunate few Lucky to have had that at all to lose And I'm willing to bet, we're not the only ones left Missin' a quiet town They're moving in with concrete, and stone, and those gray skyline homes Remember when we lived in a quiet town? Where the stars shined brighter than the city lights there And the crickets still sang after sundown Guess me and you, we're a fortunate few Lucky to have had that at all to lose And I'm willing to bet, we're not the only ones left Missin' a quiet town I still dream and pray I wish it could've been saved Those simpler days That quiet old way If you came in on the new roads instead of the old Well, you'd never know this used to be a quiet town Where the wind in the trees, and the buzz of the bees And the songbird's song wasn't all drowned out Yeah, me and you, we're a fortunate few Lucky to have had that at all to lose But I'm willing to bet we're not the only ones left Missin' a quiet town Yeah, I'm placing my bet there's more like us out there Missin' some quiet town
