This town is a lonely town Not the only town like-a this town This town is a make-you town Or a break-you-town and bring-you-down town This town is a quiet town Or a riot town like this town This town is a love-you town And a shove-you-down and push-you-'round townThis town is an all-right town For an uptight town like-a this town This town, it's a use-you town An abuse-you town until-you're-down town This town is a losin' town It's a miserable town It's a nowhere town And I am leavin' this town You better believe that I'm leavin' this town Man, it could never be uptown It's bound to be downtown This town, bye-bye Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye-bye
