I was young once, it was a long time ago Things were different then, I thought that you should know This old building was once a factory We made Stetsons, your grandpa and me It wasn't easy, but at least life was going down; There used to be a city in this town This rusted railyard had a hotel and a couple of stores We had good times here between the wars It wasn't paradise but there was music in the street Right there is where your grandparents first had a chance to meet They got married in that church, I can still see her wedding gown; There used to be a city in this town When the change came, it started one by one: First the layoffs, then the factory was gone, Then came the highways, the suburbs and Wal-Mart; That was the final blow that tore this place apart But it seems like just last year when there were people all around; There used to be a city in this town The census says there's people here but I think someone's confused Just look out at these sidewalks, they're not being used You know when a city dies, it doesn't die with grace It just becomes a ruin, shouting this was once the place Guess it's time to leave, but I don't know where I'd be bound; There used to be a city in this town
