The Greatest Town

This is the only town I’ll ever live in

This is by far the worst hand I’ve been given

The corner bars stay open late

The church don’t never shut its gates

This is the only town I’ll ever live in

These are the only hands I’ve got to pray with

Done so many wrongs, it’s hard to live with

The river it may flow

There ain’t nowhere left to go

This is the only town I’ll ever live in

Show me something you think I’ve been missing

Tell me of this life I should be living

Nothing I would trade

This is where men are made

This is the greatest town I’ll ever live in
