I gave myself to Jesus For all the things that I did see The greed of man I don't understand And you just let that be The last shift rang and we all sang Which side are you on The boss came down to our ground Said sorry its all gone So I bought her pretty flowers when I was coming home Took a lasting look around At the life that I had known I will not miss my Chevy Or my sixty inch TV Just the the pride in what I thought I had Would be forever part of me You can take this ghost town All the lying and deceit It's just the place for you right now So won't you come and see Come and see You drove a stake into our heart Now it will not make a sound But the bottom line is doing fine So you don't worry about this town I hear them toasting out your name A hero of our time But somehow I just hope You never taste what's mine Now I'm sorry for the dust and rubble Left here in this place But what did you expect would come When you closed the factory gate Now the roads are cracked and the pipes have burst But we're fighting for some change Still the corporations write the law And things just stay the same You can take this ghost town All the lying and deceit It's just the place for you right now So won't you come and see Come and see The scratches on the wall They tell a sorrow tale Of the empty faces left behind That were longing to take sail But it's vacant lots and sleeping cots That all that's left for us Cause the rally in your market Well it turned our dreams to dust I dream of rivers flowing And a sky thats ever blue And a flag that may yet wave Have some meaning for the youth For America to keeps its soul Would you lend a hand Or will it be the moneyed eye That gives the last command You can take this ghost town All the lying and deceit It's just the place for you right now So won't you come and see Come and see You can take this ghost town You're nothing more than thieves Stripped of all, and left for dead There is nothing more to bleed Nothing left to bleed
