Ghost Town

Hard times, wages, gone with the ages

See factory walls are crumbling

Now all the coins missing from the fountain

Old brick, old pine, hewed from trees from another time

Used to hang out at the depot when they came in

Freight trains full of lumber from the mountain

Now we're living in a ghost town

Now we're living in a ghost town, see

Now we're living in a ghost town

Now we're living in a ghost town, see see see see

My dad, since 18, steel plant, near main street

Savin' money so he can ask the young waitress

The one with the red hair who's always anxious

Clocked in, 4 kids, piled up on the horse hair mattress

30 years at the forgery working

Got a notice that the factory was closing

Now we're living in a ghost town

Now we're living in a ghost town, see

Now we're living in a ghost town, see the money all but left now

Now we're living in a ghost town, see see see see

See see see see

See see see see

See see see see

But I'm still here, most of us are

There's no happiness here, except for the kind you can score

Now folks my age dropping like flies

Can't stop once they get a hit of the good life

Now we're living in a ghost town

Now we're living in a ghost town, see see see see

Now we're living in a ghost town, see the money all but left now

Now we're living in a ghost town, see see see see

Now we're living in a ghost town, now we're living in a ghost town, see

Now we're living in a ghost town, see see see see

Now we're living in a ghost town, see the money all but left now

Now we're living in a ghost town, see see see see

See see see see

See see see see
