My Little Town (2002 Remaster)

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

Coming home after school
Flying my bike past the gates of the factories
My mum doing the laundry
Hanging out shirts in the dirty breeze
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

Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town

In my little town, I never meant nothing
Not even my father's son, hmm-mm
Saving my money, dreaming of glory
Twitching like a finger on a trigger of a gun

Leaving nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
