Poor Town © Jim Karns
Nobody drives a new car here
got no Cadillacs
No fancy trucks either
nothin but bad roads
ain't been paved in years
nobody drives a new car here
It's a poor town
a little run down town
but that's ok by me
it's where I'm from
and when I'm done
they gonna lay my body in the ground
they’ll be one less poor man around
in this poor town.
TURNAROUND
Textile mill burnt down late last year
Gonna build a new one
Least that’s what I hear
Not much to do now
but sit around drinkin beer
Since that textile mill burnt down last year
CH
BRIDGE
I don’t mean to say that it’s all bad
but this old place is all I ever had
CH then END
