Ghost Town Lyrics by Sawyer Hill
I’ve been gone so long
Momma said come home
I tried to fight but then she cried, so I went home
And when I crossed that line
A chill went up my spine
Something changed I couldn’t place it in my mind
Everyone I used to know had this funny sort of [?]
Something strange and powerful had brought them to their knees
I asked them who they’re praying to they said “What do you mean?”
Baby, it’s a ghost town
All the sinners are kings
All the saints are compromised and no one wonders why, why, why
Baby, it’s a ghost town
Take it in ’til you can’t breathe
Try to run and try to hide
Just don’t go asking why, why why?
Baby, it’s a ghost town
My hair stood on end
How could this be, my friend?
Call the police and put these pushers in the pen
He laughed and shook his head
With a painful grin he said
“Ain’t no man could put this madness to an end”
The peddler, he came to me and he slithered like a snake
I felt a glow fall over me when he opened his briefcase
He said “Be still, I’ve got the cure for any type of pain”
Baby, it’s a ghost town
All the sinners are kings
All the saints are compromised and no one wonders why, why, why
Baby, it’s a ghost town
Take it in ’til you can’t breathe
Try to run and try to hide
Just don’t go asking why, why why
Baby, it’s a ghost town
Baby, it’s a ghost town
Baby, it’s a ghost town
Yeah, yeah, yeah
