If you ever wanna get depressed just come to this town
Nothing to do from dinner til breakfast in this town
Four street lights and a one old grocery
I ain't long to stay here, no sirree
I'm bound to catch the next *Greyhound leaving this town
I've seen towns, no town's as bad as this town
It don't take you long to feel a little down in this town
Soon the cotton's gonna open up and I'm gonna pick it
Just long enough to make enough to buy myself a ticket
I'm bound to catch the next Greyhound leaving this town
Here I stand on the dusty road leaving this town
Hoping that (1)dog ain't got a full load leaving this town
The state built new access for travel
They got the pavement
And we got the gravel
That's the reason everything's dying around here in this town
We got very little sunshine day to the day in this town
The mail don't run but every other day in this town
Four streetlights and a one old grocery
I ain't long to stay here, no sirree
I'm bound to catch the next Greyhound leaving this town
Well we don't reap, what we don't sow in this town
Things are so bad that the weeds won't grow in this town
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, this town can go to the other place
I'm going for heaven
I'm bound to catch the next Greyhound leaving this town
