Alan Price - My Home Town lyrics

[Verse 1] Down on the corner of the street Where I was born we used to meet And sing the old songs We called them dole songs And we'd harmonize so clear Even though it was the beer That made the tears run About the years gone by And we'd go home and kiss the wife Hoping a kiss could change your life That's how romance is No second chances Back in my home town [Verse 2] Things aren't so very different now Poor folk must get along somehow You live forever On the never never Back in my home town
