Joel Plaskett Emergency - Love This Town lyrics

rate me

Listen up kid

It's not what you think

Staying up too late

Had a little too much to drink

Walked home across the bridge

When the Marquee shut down

There's a reason that I love this town

Nobody cares how much money you have

If you've got enough to get in a cab

There'll be drinks on the house if your house burns down

There's a reason that I love this town

I saw your band in the early days

We all understand why you moved away

We'll hold a grudge anyway

I shot the shit with Miniature Tim

If he needs a tune, then I'll write one for him

We like the same books and we like the same sounds

There's a reason that I love this town

I played a show

In Kelowna last year

They said pick it up Joel

We're dying in here

Picture one hand clapping

And picture half that sound

There's a reason that I hate that town

If you saw my band in the early days

Then you'll understand why we moved away

But you'll hold a grudge anyway

Because it's fun

Davey and me

Face down in our soup

In some French restaurant

Outside Riviere Du Loup

Last night out on tour

We burned the place to the ground

There's a reason that I love this town

There's a reason that I love this town

There's a reason that I love this town
