THIS PART OF TOWN
Hold your memories
‘Cause nothin’ will replace ‘em
Like a meadow in the breeze
Or the towns we were escapin’
Folks like you and me
We land here when we’re runnin’
The floor is cold but rent is cheap
And the cupboard’s full of nothin’
And I know you just wanna fix up babe
Talk about somethin’ else
But I just want to take you down
No I don’t care too much, anymore, for this part of town
There’s garbage in the streets
And the window blinds are broken
Faded like your jeans
And the words that we have spoken
Like you were to me
You knew the clouds meant somethin’
Strange you couldn’t see
The storms and they were comin’
And I know you just wanna fix up babe
Talk about somethin’ else
But I just want to take you down
No I don’t care too much, anymore, for this part of town
I told you I would leave
Without no hesitation
A man can find a ride
Any day to western stations
And I won’t start a fight
That I lost long ago
Darlin’ you were right
But I ain’t livin’ here alone
And I know you just wanna fix up babe
Talk about somethin’ else
But I just wanna tear you down
No I don’t care too much, anymore, for this part of town
