Lehigh Valley Lyrics

Renee Christine Lehigh Valley

[Verse 1]
I might look young, but I've been here since they first laid the tracks
Great Grandpa's ghost dug the mines out and he never came back
Now they stand around and find some pretty words to put you in your grave
Oh, sure as they go home at night, they didn't mean a thing that they say
They say
And I know

[Chorus]
The Lehigh Valley just don't feel like it used to
With Church Street emptied out
Ever since the devils in the White House gutted this place
Well, the bullet and the bottle get around
They get around
They get around
They get around
They get around
They get around
They get around
[Verse 2]
I still hear voices from the iron furnace sittin' off the road
And folks just look harmless, but they'll fool you if you don't already know
And it happens so slowly you don't know it 'til the day that it's gone
Crack in the barrel ain't gonna tell you anything was ever wrong

[Chorus]
The Lehigh Valley just don't feel like it used to
With Church Street emptied out
Ever since the devils in the White House gutted this place
Well, the bullet and the bottle get around
They get around
They get around
They get around
They get around
They get around
They get around
