God Bless This Town Lyrics

God Bless This Town lyrics

(Rory Bourke/Phil Vassar)

 

 I can tell I'm home by the way they're driving

 The pace is slow and the air is clear

 Ain't nobody in a real big hurry

 There's not many deadlines to meet around here

 I've been gone for way too long

 Been too far out of touch

 And lookin' around me I can see

 That just being happy you don't need much

 

 Oh, God bless this town

 Tall church steeples and the big playgrounds

 The streets roll up when the sun goes down

 And love runs deep as the trees are round

 I'm back on hallowed ground

 God bless this town

 

 I see the old bank clock's still broken

 I guess they'll get around to it one of these days

 Evelyn Pane's still working at the drugstore

 They're still hanging out at the hardware on main

 Not much changes here except the stoplight's red and green

 My old house still looks the same

 And everybody is on the front porch waitin' on me

 

 Oh, God bless this town

 Tall church steeples and the big playgrounds

 The streets roll up when the sun goes down

 And love runs deep as the trees are round

 I'm back on hallowed ground

 God bless this town

 

 I remember the day I left here 

 Going out on my own

 Mama said, "Boy no matter where you wind up

 This will always be your home."

 

 Oh, God bless this town

 Tall church steeples and the big playgrounds

 The streets roll up when the sun goes down

 And love runs deep as the trees are round

 I'm back on hallowed ground

 God bless this town

 

 Oh, God bless this town

 Tall church steeples and the big playgrounds

 The streets roll up when the sun goes down

 And love runs deep as the trees are round

 I'm back on hallowed ground

 God bless this town
