Simon & Garfunkel
My Little Town
[Verse 1]
In my little town
I grew up believing
God keeps His eye on us all
And He used to lean upon me
As I pledged allegiance to the wall
Lord I recall
My little town
[Verse 2]
Coming home after school
Flying my bike past the gates
Of the factories
My mom doing the laundry
Hanging our shirts
In the dirty breeze
[Verse 3]
And after it rains
There's a rainbow
And all of the colors are black
It's not that the colors aren't there
It's just imagination they lack
Everything's the same
Back in my little town
[Chorus]
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
[Verse 4]
I never meant nothing
I was Just my father's son
Saving my money
Dreaming of glory
Twitching like a finger
On the trigger of a gun
[Chorus]
Leaving nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
[Chorus]
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
[Chorus]
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
