Burnt Out Town - Tom Petty & The Heart Breakers Yeah
Uh huh
I was walking down the street the other day
And a woman stopped me
She said why is it you look so down in the mouth
And I told her
This is a burnt-out town
It's full of dirty looks
There's ashes on main street And the mayor is cookin' the books
Why even my best friends are turnin' into crooks
Yeah this is a burnt-out town
New emperor same clothes
They're dancing on glass ceilings While the filthy money flows
Yes and here I am stealing gas with a garden hose
Oh look out now
Yeah
Take that
body
how it
Look here
This is a burnt-out town
The city fathers have come to blows
It's out of their realm of reality The truth's indecent when exposed
Yeah it's a burnt-out town
It's goin' down but no one knows
Yeah it's a burnt-out town
Ain't dead but gettin' close
