This town is a lonely town
not the only town like-a this town
this town is a make-you town
or a break-you-town and bring-you-down town
this town is a quiet town
or a riot town like this town
this town is a love-you town
and a shove-you-down and push-you-'round town
<instrumental>
this town is an all-right town
for an uptight town like-a this town
this town, it's a use-you town
an abuse-you town until-you're-down town
this town is a losin' town
it's a miserable town
it's a nowhere town
and i am leavin' this town
you better believe that i'm leavin' this town
man, it could never be uptown
it's bound to be downtown
<fade>
this town, bye-bye
bye, bye, bye, bye, bye-bye
