Walkin' with the ghost's of yesterday Through the streets of my hometown Dusty old papers and memories Like tumbleweeds blowin' around Nothin' but boarded up windows and locks on every door There ain't nothin' main about Main Street anymore The marquee on the Regal hasn't changed since '69 And that old broken down merry go round's still in front of the five and dime And that upstairs pool hall's gone along with the liquor store There ain't nothin' main about Main Street anymore There was life in this old town There was fighting and loving, winning and losing Drinkin' and crusin' down Main Street in my old Ford There ain't no going back to the way things were before There ain't nothin' main about Main Street anymore sponsored links Big John never came back from Viet Nam His mama died of a broken heart Suzy's daddy got mean when he drank so her leavin' was the easy part
Now I still go down there to look around but I don't know what I'm lookin' for Cause, there ain't nothin' main about Main Street anymore There was life in this old town There was fighting and loving, winning and losing Drinkin' and crusin' down Main Street in my old Ford There ain't no going back to the way things were before There ain't nothin' main about Main Street anymore There was life in this old town There was fighting and loving, winning and losing Drinkin' and crusin' down Main Street in my old Ford But, there ain't no going back to the way things were before There ain't nothin' main about Main Street Nothin' main about Main Street There ain't nothin' main about Main Street anymore Ohh, nothin' main about Main Street Nothin', nothin' main about Main Street Me and my friends crusin' in my old Ford Yeah, up and down Main Street Main Street
