This was a town took care of it's own That's what me and my children have known I worked the mill the way my parents did I remember this town when I was a kidSitting through the movies twice Open windows late at night Slipping out in the summer heat To meet John Miller in the middle of the streetThey laid a highway a few years back Next town over by the railroad track Some nights, I'm glad it passed us by Some nights, I sit and watch my hometown dieI'm fifty-five and when the mill burned down I wasn't much past a pretty young gal The boss lit a match in the oily night Cops never had enough to set it rightSo while the company traded with our lives We were busy watching that slow moon rise Dancing on the dry grass bridge Making love down by the Cedar County BridgeThey laid a highway a few years back Next town over by the railroad track Some nights, I'm glad it passed us by Some nights, I sit and watch my hometown dieThey never came to tear that old place down They roped it off, but you can walk around See the dust on the rusted doors Watch the rain fall through the burned out floorsThis was a town took care of it's own This was a town doing fine all alone The mill got out a quarter to five You could eat supper with any family you likedThey laid a highway a few years back Next town over by the railroad track Some nights, I'm glad it passed us by Some nights, I sit and watch this hometown die
