๐ Lyrics
This used to be a place where a man could find some work
Put together Holdens or a foundry job at worst
I could hear the noises coming from the Karawara deep into the night
Oh, the road was filled with kids playing after dark
Sent to get their fathers who were drinking at the bar
Eat, sleep, work, drink, that's all they ever did, yeah, come on
Oh, they're shutting down our town
They're cutting down our town
No more production line blue collar can be found
They'll tear it to the ground
They're shutting down our town
Yeah, shutting down our town
And I started raising hell before I came of age
Running from my past, clenched fists of rage
And I fought my way through every other day, never looking back, yeah
Oh and everyone I knew was back there on the streets
Every lesson learned kept me on my feet
And I can't help thinking 'bout the ones I left behind, oh yeah
Oh, they're shutting down our town
They're cutting down our town
No more production line blue collar can be found
They'll tear it to the ground
They're shutting down our town
Yeah, they're shutting down our town
Oh they're shutting down our town
They're tearing out its heart
Wasn't much to look at from the very start
Herded all together
From many different lands
Old folks stand around, come on
While they're shutting down our town
You know they'll tear it to the ground
Shutting down our town
Come on, sing it (woh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
They're shutting down our town (woh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
They're shutting down our town
And I finally made it home, found some peace at last
Time to stop running from the demons of my past
Some that I remember but the rest are changing way too fast, hey
Oh, they're shutting down our town
They're cutting down our town
No more production line blue collar can be found
They'll tear it to the ground
They're shutting down our town, hey
Yeah, they're shutting down our town
You know they'll tear it to the ground
Shutting down our town, come on now
(Woh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, they're shutting down our town
(Woh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Oh they're shutting down our town, come on
(Woh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Shutting down our town
(Woh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
They're shutting down our town
You know they're shutting down our town
