One Horse Town Lyrics

Carpenter One Horse Town

Well I’m sorry to hear you’re not feeling so good
I’m sure that your folks would help out if they could
I know everybody was sorry to see you go
You followed the lights of the big city dream
And it lead you down paths you couldn’t have seen
Now you’re spending your days down at the sally ann

You got fed up with the town,
Same people and places always around
You never had it so good

Well it seems a bit like you’re wearing down
No people to talk to, no jobs to be found
Sounds like some things in you might have changed
We all mess up once just don’t do it again
Go back on your word then turn on your friends
But I know everybody wish you could make it home

You got fed up with the town,
Same people and places always around
You never had it so good
There’s no heart to be found,
Just the grime and the smoke to help wear a man down
You never had it so good

You’d like to get back to this one horse town
