Nobody Gets off in This Town Lyrics

Nobody gets off in this town
Trains don't even slow down

My high-school sweetheart is married and gone
They met on a bus to San Antone

The greyhound stops and somebody gets on
But nobody gets off in this town

Nobody gets off in this town
Old folks 'round here wear a frown

Now let me see if I can set the scene
It's a one dog town and he's old and mean

There's one stop light but it's always green
Nobody gets off in this town

Nobody gets off in this town
The high school colors are brown
They can't drag main because it kicks up dust

The cars and their dreams are starting to rust
The high school dances are always a bust
Nobody gets off in this town

Nobody gets off in this town
They ought to just tear it down

In the winter you freeze, and in the summer you fry

Utility bill's the only thing that gets high
I'd go for a drink But this county is dry

Nobody gets off
Nobody gets off

Nobody gets off in this
Swear old merry go round
No nobody gets off in this town
