Damn This Town

                                  They killed my brother in a poker game

Damn this town, I'm leavin'

Daddy stayed drunk and he died insane

Damn this town, I'm leavin'



Mama had to work, barely raised the kids

Damn this town, I'm leavin'

I ain't gonna tell ya what her youngest boy did

Damn this town, I'm leavin'



[Chorus]

Damn this town

I mean it this time

Damn this town

I've made up my mind

Damn this town

Damn this town



I gotta sister who's a thief and she's filled with hate

Now she's gotta job working for the state

Another brother just got out of the Florida Pen?

Wears a bracelet on his ankle so they know where he's been



[Chorus]



Couple of sisters made it out alright

Brother in the army fightin' for his life

There must be some kind of reckoning

A righteous judgment for all these things



That's all I'm gonna say about my family

Damn this town, I'm leavin'

But maybe you'd like to know a little 'bout me

Damn this town, I'm leavin'

I'm fifty-eight years old, still live at home like a kid

Damn this town, I'm leavin'

Now I can't let my mama tell you what her youngest boy did

Damn this town, I'm leavin'
