Текст песни Shutting Down Our Town
SHUTTING DOWN OUR TOWN (written by Troy Cassar-Daley) This used to be a place Where a man could find some work, Put together Holdens Or a foundry job at worst. I can hear the noises coming From the Karawara deep into the night. The roads were filled with kids playing after dark, Sent to get their fathers Who were sitting at the bar. Eat, sleep, work, drink – That's all they ever did. Oh, they're shutting down our town, They're cutting down our town, No more production line blue collar can be found. They'll tear it to the ground, They're shutting down our town, Oh, they're shutting down our town. I started raising hell before I came of age Running from my past with clenched fists of rage. And I fought my way through every other day, Never looking back. And everything I knew was back there on those streets, Every lesson learned kept me on my feet But I can't help thinking of the ones I left behind. Oh, they're shutting down our town, They're cutting down our town, No more production line blue collar can be found. They'll tear it to the ground, They're shutting down our town, Oh, they're shutting down our town. Oh, they're shutting down our town, They're tearing out its heart, It wasn't much to look at From the very start. Herded all together From many different lands, The old folks stand around While they're shutting down our town. Yeah, they're shutting down our town They're shutting down our town... And I finally came back home, Found some peace at last, Was time to stop running From the demons of my past. Some that I remember But the rest are changing way too fast. Yeah, they're shutting down our town, They're cutting down our town, No more production line blue collar can be found. They'll tear it to the ground, They're shutting down our town, Oh, they're shutting down our town. They're shutting down our town, You know they'll tear it to the ground. Yeah, they're shutting down our town, They'll tear it to the ground, They're shutting down our town Yeah, they're shutting down our town.
