Town Folk Lyrics

John Reuben Town Folk

town folk left a note we tore your poster down/
last time around the sheriff chased me out of town/
somebody say hey why am i here/
one-armed scarecrow booked me for a county fair/
i'm in the hills of pennsylvania/
playing a show for no one/
they said the kids would come/
let's take the money and run/

say that you love me/
show me on the dance floor/
if it's important prove it on the dance floor/

we left in a van on a 2 month tour/
my friend's been overseas 5 years of war/
inspirational singer motivational speaker/
in one ear out the other/
i don't have no easy answers/
opening act is an art band/
painting pictures banging trash cans/
celebration of the arts/
i just don't know how important you are/

was it young and naive change the world do you believe/
here's to hoping that its more than wishful thinking/
sun shines through the night shed some light on your dreams/
we found a new way to succeed/
