seals crofts – tin town lyrics
have you been down to tin town
where dreams in cans once were drowned?
a snag somewhere in someone’s life
caught him there, pulled him to strife
a bottle here, and there are left
many broken, the air is deaf
with non-understanding vows
remember tears upon their brows
in tin town, has-been town
tin town, has-been town
a tiny flag upon a mast
where camp-town children played in past
a river winding through the trees
banks eroded, extreme degrees
once a place to be baptized
when pentecostal need arise
a shank or two with rotted plank
a fish or two, their eyes are blank
in tin town, has-been town
tin town, has-been town
well, i been down to tin town
where once a boy i did fall down
and cut my arm on piled up junk
i wrapped it up and i hailed a drunk
he carried me three miles to home
where daddy said i was cut to the bone
the doctor washed his hands and said
five more minutes, the boy’d been dead
down where people lose their heads
in tin town, has-been town
tin town, has-been town, i know you well
well, i live here in tin town
not many people come around
when when they do i smile at them
and say, h-llo, it’s a mighty hot day
can you spare a man a dime?
i got thirty cents and i can buy some wine
i’m livin’ in my childhood schemes
please, mister, you can make my dreams
(you can make my dreams)
in tin town, has-been town
tin town, has-been town
it’s my home, it’s my home
it’s my home, it’s my home
