Our Town
Music by Randy Newman
Lyrics by Randy Newman
Long ago, but not so very long ago
The world was different, oh yes it
was
You settled down and you built a town and made it live
And you watched
it grow
It was your town
Time goes by, time brings changes, you
change, too
Nothing comes that you can't handle, so on you go
Never see it
coming, the world caves in on you
On your town
Nothing you can
do
Main street isn't main street anymore
Lights don't shine as
brightly as they shone before
Tell the truth, lights don't shine at all
In
our town
Sun comes up each morning
Just like it's always done
Get
up, go to work, start the day
Open up for business that's never gonna
come
As the world rolls by a million miles away
Main street isn't main
street anymore
No one seems to need us like they did before
It's hard to
find a reason left to stay
But it's our town
Love it anyway
Come what may, it's our town
