J J Cale This Town Lyrics

This Town Lyrics

This town I live in ain`t fit for man or beast
This town I live in ain`t fit for man or beast
There`s a man down here, a man down there
They all want to rob you or take you somewhere
This town I live in ain`t fit for man or beast
I`m going down to the store, boy
And get myself a dog
I`m going down to the store, boy
And get myself a dog
I`m going to chain, chain, chain him
Up to my fence
Make him bark, bark, bark
Understand my French
I`m going down to the store, boy
And get myself a dog
If I had a hundred dollars
I`d buy myself a gun
If I had a hundred dollars
I`d buy myself a gun
I`d stick it out the door
And wait for an attack
I`ll need somebody just to cover my back
If I had a hundred dollars
I`d buy myself a gun
The moral of the story
You better watch where you go
The moral of the story, boy
You better watch out where you go
They`ll get you in the morning
They`ll get you at night
Some, then want to rob you
But most, they want to fight
This town I live in, I got to go
This town I live in
This town I live in, I got to go
