title track of CD

lyrics

NOTHIN GOIN ON
IN COMPANY TOWN
JUST A FEW PEOPLE
STANDIN AROUND

THERE USED TO BE A FACTORY
UP ON THE HILL
THEY’RE TEARIN IT DOWN
TEARIN IT DOWN

DADDY GOT A JOB
A NEW LITTLE HOUSE
BACK WHEN THEY BUILT
THIS LITTLE TOWN

HE WORKED REAL LONG
THEY GAVE HIM A CARD
FOR THE COMPANY STORE
IN COMPANY TOWN

THERE USED TO BE A FACTORY
UP ON THE HILL
THEY’RE TEARIN IT DOWN
TEARIN IT DOWN

TAKE A LITTLE DRIVE
ALL THROUGH THE SOUTH
FROM THE SANDHILLS DOWN
TO THE RIVERS MOUTH

YOU CAN’T COUNT
ALL THE LITTLE TOWNS
WHERE THE BIG BOYS SHUT
THE FACTORIES DOWN

THERE USED TO BE A FACTORIES
USED TO BE MILLS
THEY’RE TEARIN EM DOWN
TEARIN EM DOWN

DRIVE ON PAST
THE BORDER TOWNS
FOLLOW THE TRAIL TO
THE BIG BLACK CLOUD

IT ‘LL BLOW YOUR MIND
HOW THEY CRANK IT OUT
THAT’S WHERE THEY MOVED
OUR COMPANY TOWN

THERE USED TO BE A FACTORY
UP ON THE HILL
THEY’RE TEARIN IT DOWN
TEARIN IT DOWN

THERE USED TO BE A FACTORY
UP ON THE HILL
THEY’RE TEARIN IT DOWN

GOTTA MAKE WAY
FOR A NEW LITTLE TOWN

NOTHIN GOIN ON IN COMPANY TOWN
JUST A FEW PEOPLE STANDIN AROUND

NOTHIN GOIN ON IN COMPANY TOWN

NOTHIN GOIN ON IN COMPANY TOWN
