Description
This is a song I wrote and recorded several years ago but never posted. I thought now might be a good time for it to see the light of day. This was a hard one to mix and am not sure I got it right but hope it is not too out of sinc for the producers among you.

Lyrics
Oh the south side of town is as beautiful as can be
The yards are well kept and the flowers attract the bees
The houses look so nice in their bright, shiny paint
And they are surrounded by giant, oak trees
But the north side of town is not quite so sweet
The streets are cracked and the buildings are falling down
There is a smell in the air that is rather foul
I guess it's because of the oil refinery
Oh, my home town, sometimes I miss you
Oh, my home town sometimes I don't
And sometimes I wish that the river would wash you away
and bury my memories at the bottom of the sea
Oh I had a job with the State Government
In a building made of stone by the riverside
And I collected money for the corrupt bueracrats
But mostly I just stayed stoned all day long
But I loved the music that I heard everywhere
In the clubs, houses, fields and cars
It was the only thing that got me through the day
So I could relax and rock away the night
The yards are well kept and the flowers attract the bees
The houses look so nice in their bright, shiny paint
And they are surrounded by giant, oak trees
But the north side of town is not quite so sweet
The streets are cracked and the buildings are falling down
There is a smell in the air that is rather foul
I guess it's because of the oil refinery
Oh, my home town, sometimes I miss you
Oh, my home town sometimes I don't
And sometimes I wish that the river would wash you away
and bury my memories at the bottom of the sea
Oh I had a job with the State Government
In a building made of stone by the riverside
And I collected money for the corrupt bueracrats
But mostly I just stayed stoned all day long
But I loved the music that I heard everywhere
In the clubs, houses, fields and cars
It was the only thing that got me through the day
So I could relax and rock away the night
thetiler
but I enjoyed the terrific story setting.
Blending a story is so cool like this and fan to hear your clear soulful
voice. Like the folk country sound as well.
Nice to hear bronco!
Lots of nice folk musical warmth!
