Nothin' Happens In This Town Lyrics - Singles - Bobby Pinson

The welcome sign is missin' an "O" 

From a teenage twelve gauge shotgun hole 

Been on the county's list of things, not to fix 

For ten years now nothin' happens in this town 

You gotta cross the line to get a drink 

'Cause this one's dry and that one ain't 

Yeah, you might wind up on a jail house bunk 

You'll get out, nothin' happens in this town 

Happens every time you turn around 

We all know Joe could have gone pro 

When he fills your tank, he'll tell you so 

You don't see Jimmy when he ain't stoned 

The girl next door's six months along, waitin' on a Greyhound 

That's what happens when nothin' happens in this town 

Last Saturday night I guess Sara got bored 

'Cause I got further than I got before 

I ain't supposed to tell but what the hell 

I'm sick of how nothin' happens in this town 

Happens every time you turn around 

We all know Joe could have gone pro 

When he fills your tank, he'll tell you so 

You don't see Jimmy when he ain't stoned 

The girl next door's six months along, waitin' on a Greyhound 

That's what happens when nothin' happens in this town 

Nothin' happens in this town 

Happens every time you turn around 

We all know Joe could have gone pro 

When he fills your tank, he'll tell you so 

You don't see Jimmy when he ain't stoned 

The girl next door's six months along, waitin' on a Greyhound 

That's what happens when nothin' happens in this town 

Nothin' happens in this town 

Hey Joe, what's happenin'?
