Lyrics:
[Chorus:]
Hit 'em up, peace up, A-town down
Hit 'em up, peace up, A-town down
Hit 'em up, peace up, A-town down
If you ain't from round here dog
I met a liitle girl in Knoxville, a town we all know well
And every Sunday evening, out in her home, I'd dwell
We went to take an evening walk about
Their hopes and dreams
Built up tall
Nestled in the trees
A town untouched by decay
Crisp like autumn leaves
Streets of old
The promise of gold
Lured
telling me to leave
Now where do I Go
I?m about to hit some spots with my guys from outta town
And there you go making those mean old eyes
Feel like I?m in
commes to greet you, you'll rise with clothes on
And advance with the others, singing old songs
Of cattle and maidens and withered old queens.
Let
And scrapped the souls off our shoes
Looking back, we were kids having fun
Jimmy on guitar and Bobby on drums
Me with the mic, and Joe on the bass
Our home town
chance I got
And he would begin to cry
Telling me the stories of his days long gone by
Well he started out in an old jazz band
Up in Chicago town
That old
It was Memorial Day in '81
I left the city and I drove back home
I stopped by the grave of a childhood friend
And as I stood there I talked
To him
talked about unbuckling that old bible belt
And headed out for some desert town
Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels
And a good
back home for buns
With my mum and her mates, watching re-runs
By day I sells draw with my mates you see
But at night I likes to watch romantic comedy
I
It started back then in the summer '07 making music in the old garage
Jumped in the jeep drove out to Arizona where we met a couple friends of ours
the old home town now
It's putting up sleek concrete
Tearing the old landmarks down now
Paving over brave little parks
Ripping off Indian land again
the old home town now
It's putting up sleek concrete
Tearing the old landmarks down now
Paving over brave little parks
Ripping off Indian land again
Well, she seemed all right by dawn's early light
Though she looked a little worried and weak
She tried to pretend he wasn't drinkin' again
But
the rest of the week now I'm eating out a soup cans
He has a home, drives a Caddy through town
Has my Old Earth believing that he's coming from the ground
a home, drives his Caddy through town
Has my old earth believin' that he's comin' from the ground (Jesus)
Slain are those who fought for what was right
You should know by now, by now
I've been on the road 16 days
I've been really grindin', goin' hard right now
I know that I'm hardly ever home
the sound
Fuck you! I'm just tryin' to put it down for my home town
Cars drive by with the booming system
I must be getting old cause the bass sounds
Watch out! If you don't like the sound
Fuck you! I'm just tryin' to put it down for my home town
Cars drive by with the boomin' system
I must be gettin'
and it's time to go to town, where do you go?
To rock and roll
The old folks say that ya gotta end your date by ten
If you're out on a date and you
and it's time to go to town, where do you go?
To rock and roll
The old folks say that ya gotta end your date by ten
If you're out on a date and you
and it's time to
Hit the town
Where do you go, you gotta rock it
The old folks say that ya gotta end your date
By ten
But if you're out on a date
and it's time to go to town, where do you go?
To rock and roll
The old folks say that ya gotta end your date by ten
If you're out on a date and you
a little bitty town
And I'd sure like to see
All the drivers in them out of state cars
Try to get by me
