Bruce Hornsby And The Range Talk Of The Town Lyrics

Talk Of The Town Lyrics

I've been riding around with the top down

 Like I always do

 My love at my side, but only this time

 My friends say something's changed you

 They said you're running with the wrong set

 The girl is someone you should never have met

 Let her go on her own, son

 Everyon else has just come undone

 

 The old town fathers are up in arms

 The city council is very alarmed

 Cousins and uncles are having fits

 Predictors of doom think this is it

 Everybody else is just hanging around

 And me and my baby we're the talk of the town

 

 The statue there in the town square

 Seems to stare at me

 Walking around with my head down

 They say can't we make you see

 Said son, you know we're really color blind

 But everybody else seems to really mind

 Lose her now, I think you'll find

 Everything else will just fall in line

 

 

 The old town fathers are up in arms

 The city council is very alarmed

 Cousins and uncles are having fits

 Predictors of doom think this is it

 Everyone else is just thinking out loud

 And me and my baby we're the talk of the town

 

 We're probably not the first

 Surely not the last

 Shouldn't throw stones out from your house of glass

 Round here lots of crackers and cheese

 Stay away from those my daddy said to me

 You'll get in trouble if you mess with these

 

 The old town fathers are up in arms

 The city council is very alarmed

 Cousins and uncles are having fits

 Predictors of doom think this is it

 Everybody else is just hanging around

 And me and my baby we're the talk of the town
