Our Town Lyrics - David Wilcox

Billy cut his hair last night 

The cops said he didn't look right 

For our town 

We sell poultry, eggs and meat, but 

Your kind don't shop on this street 

In our town 

And it's a funny thing 

It's always been that way 

It's never gonna change 

I'd say 

We'll send money halfway around the world, 

But don't you go callin' on the girls 

In our town 

The job is taken, apartment's gone 

Must've forgot to take the sign off the lawn 

In our town 

And it's a funny thing 

It's always been that way 

It's never gonna change 

I'd say 

There ain't nothin' wrong with a pretty face 

I hope all the girls know their place 

In our town 

Well, I don't want you to misunderstand but 

You can't have a woman takin' work from a man 

In our town 

And it's a funny thing 

It's always been that way 

It's never gonna change 

I'd say 

Oh don't judge a book by the cover 

Never meant one thing or another 

In our town 

All the houses look the same 

You see, tradition is the name of the game 

In our town 

Yes it is 

And it's a funny thing 

It's always been that way 

It's never gonna change 

I'd say
