stan ridgway – lonely town lyrics
they all say that it’s a lonely town
they all say that it’s a lonely town
wide open sp-ces––empty rooms
if the weather holds out, you can get there by noon
shadows crawl on the highway line
don’t rush, you’ve got time
pull into a donut shop
and get a cup of mud
ask for directions from a plumber outside
he says “don’t go there, bud”
chorus:
’cause they all say
that it’s a lonely town
and they all say
that it’s a drag
and they all know
those people in a lonely town
all those people are
lonely and mad
now i’ve got my foot on the gas
as i’m crossin the midwest county line
and i think about those mosquitos on my windshield
how they don’t give a d-mn about christmas-time
and as the p-ssing trucks all flash their lights
just as i top the hill
i’ll remember two green eyes and some flowers
dyin’ on a windowsill
chorus:
they all say
that it’s a lonely town
and they all say
that it’s a drag
they all know
those people in a lonely town
and all those people
are lonely and mad
they’re just lonely and mad
out here in a lonely town
