This Town Lyrics - J. J. Cale

(J.J. Cale) 

This town I live in ain't fit for man or beast 

This town I live in ain't fit for man or beast 

There's a man down here, a man down there 

They all want to rob you or take you somewhere 

This town I live in ain't fit for man or beast 

I'm going down to the store, boy 

And get myself a dog 

I'm going down to the store, boy 

And get myself a dog 

I'm going to chain, chain, chain him 

Up to my fence 

Make him bark, bark, bark 

Understand my French 

I'm going down to the store, boy 

And get myself a dog 

If I had a hundred dollars 

I'd buy myself a gun 

If I had a hundred dollars 

I'd buy myself a gun 

I'd stick it out the door 

And wait for an attack 

I'll need somebody just to cover my back 

If I had a hundred dollars 

I'd buy myself a gun

The moral of the story 

You better watch where you go 

The moral of the story, boy 

You better watch out where you go 

They'll get you in the morning 

They'll get you at night 

Some, then want to rob you 

But most, they want to fight 

This town I live in, I got to go 

This town I live in 

This town I live in, I got to go
