"Town Where Nobody Lives" lyrics

"Town Where Nobody Lives"

I used to know this town
Like the back of my hand
Every woman and man
I could count on

Now I'm just a stranger
In a town where nobody lives
A town where nobody
Gives a damn

The park at the end of the lane
Is so overgrown it's frightening
The old corner bar is all closed up
Where we used to sing "La Vie En Rose"

I used to run this town
Ran it into the ground
Now it's just a town
Where nobody lives

I used to run this town...
