Nobody living in Burchell Lake Left in a hurry is what the old folks say Once was the best mining town around Until the copper fell and the pumps shut down Playing dominoes in the general store Ain’t nobody playing them games no more Redford and McDonald could proudly boast But now Burchell Lake is just a town for ghosts Right at the end of Highway 802 Big Prospector figured what he could do The great war kept the mines from closing up Until the guns were put down and the killing stopped White paint peeling in the Northern sun Rusting fire hydrants by the B.A. Station The homes still stand The birds still sing But for all their beauty it don’t mean a thing ‘Cause nobody’s listening in Burchell Lake Nobody believing in what patiently waits For another soul to come and dig in its soil Fill the row houses with the boys and girls Nobody’s living in Burchell Lake Nobody believing in Burchell Lake Nobody listening in Burchell Lake Nobody living in Burchell Lake
