Nobody Gets Off In This Town

[Verse] Nobody gets off in this town Trains don't even slow down My high school sweetheart's married and gone They met on a bus to San Antone The Greyhound stops! Somebody gets on But nobody gets off in this town Nobody gets off in this town Old folks around 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[x2] High school colors are brown They can't drag Main because it kicks up dust Their cars and their dreams are all starting to rust The high school dances are always a bust Nobody gets off in this town[x2] They ought to just tear it down Because 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[x2] Nobody gets off in this square old merry-go-round No, nobody gets off in this town
