This Old Town

歌詞

This Old Town words and music by Chris Gangi This old town ain’t meant for ramblin’ This old town has got me still I pray to god I’ll find another On my life I know I will Once I spent my 40 days and nights under the desert’s gaze Even I could find trouble all the while Took too much to drinking and those lonely night left a-thinking Even I could hear that desert wind sigh I prayed to god to save my life Chorus: Once I knew a preacher man Preached the bible hand in hand All that he knew had done been used He left one night in the quiet town an old man lost and another found Now there’s nothing left for him to loose He prayed to god to help him choose Chorus: You know I had a girl one-night hold me sayin’ things were right And took me to a place I’ve never been She told me things I’d never heard about the way the world had turned As I awoke to a full moon on the rise I prayed to God to save my life
