A car rolls by way down low There's a name on a wall that I know I heard a shot go off in the night My father said everything is alright in the town where I come from Some kids are playing out in the yard A mother says " don't wander too far " I can go there when I dream I close my eyes and it's all I see The town where I come from I know it's where my heart will be found It's where I'll finally lay myself down I can go there when I dream I close my eyes and it's all I see The town where I came from
