Well, I took a little trip to the smokestack town It's the only thing that helps me when I'm feeling down Took a left in the high school parking Lit a spliff in the VP parking spot Got an old Toyota, four bald tires Took her down River Road and past Southwire Pulled it off that two-story house burnt down Nothing left but ashes now I've been 'cross Hogsville to the paper mill Well, it's nice to see it's up and running still Used to sleep down here with a rod and reel and pray for a little luck And my daddy's still working the graveyard shift Never seemed to really struggle much at all with it Soon enough, he saved it up enough to call it quits 'Cause it broke his body down And that's thе way it goes in a lonely smokestack town This town ain't rеally ever changed Since my parents' parents gave 'em names But it's nice to see the same old friendly faces roaming 'round That sunset sky still up in flames At a district high school baseball game And the grass is blue and the river's running brown In a smokestack town Letras de cancionesWell, I pulled on in the Vastwood Park Where the kids are still hanging out after dark No light but a butane lighter spark Smells a little too loud They swear their parents still don't know But they were here too, not long ago After all, there ain't elsewhere to go in a lonely smokestack town It's just nice to see the kids still hang around And this town ain't really ever changed Since my parents' parents gave 'em names But it's nice to see the same old friendly faces roaming 'round That sunset sky still up in flames At a district high school baseball game Where the grass is blue and the river's running brown In a smokestack town This town ain't really ever changed Since my parents' parents gave 'em names But it's nice to see the same old friendly faces roaming 'round That sunset sky still up in flames At a district high school baseball game And the grass is blue and the river's running brown And I hope and pray they lay my body down In a smokestack town Smokestack town From Letras Mania
