Marshall Dyllon - God Bless This Town lyrics

rate me

I can tell I'm home by the way they're driving

The pace is slow and the air is clear

Ain't nobody in a real big hurry

There's not many deadlines to meet around here

I've been gone for way too long

Been too far out of touch

And lookin' around me I can see

That just being happy you don't need much

Oh, God bless this town

Tall church steeples and the big playgrounds

The streets roll up when the sun goes down

And love runs deep as the trees are round

I'm back on hallowed ground

God bless this town

I see the old bank clock's still broken

I guess they'll get around to it one of these days

Evelyn Pane's still working at the drugstore

They're still hanging out at the hardware on main

Not much changes here except the stoplight's red and green

My old house still looks the same

And everybody is on the front porch waitin' on me

Oh, God bless this town

Tall church steeples and the big playgrounds

The streets roll up when the sun goes down

And love runs deep as the trees are round

I'm back on hallowed ground

God bless this town

I remember the day I left here

Going out on my own

Mama said, "Boy no matter where you wind up

This will always be your home."

Oh, God bless this town

Tall church steeples and the big playgrounds

The streets roll up when the sun goes down

And love runs deep as the trees are round

I'm back on hallowed ground

God bless this town

Oh, God bless this town

Tall church steeples and the big playgrounds

The streets roll up when the sun goes down

And love runs deep as the trees are round

I'm back on hallowed ground

God bless this town
