Somebody Bought My Old Hometown

Somebody Bought My Old Hometown - Bobby Bare[00:00:01]

Written by:Jack Clemen[00:00:03]

I used to like to listen to the tales of the old men[00:00:05]

Who sat around the old park square[00:00:10]

But the piddlers and the whittlers[00:00:15]

And the checker boards are gone[00:00:17]

There's a brand new office building there[00:00:20]

And the street known as maple is much wider now[00:00:25]

And there are no maples to be found[00:00:32]

Since consolidated whozit Subdivision of[00:00:37]

Universal what you call it[00:00:41]

Bought my old hometown[00:00:44]

There used to be good fishin'[00:00:53]

Down along the shady mill stream[00:00:55]

You'd see 'em as they jumped and played[00:00:58]

But the blue gill and the croppie[00:01:03]

And the old mill made way[00:01:05]

For chemical division section a[00:01:08]

They pulled up the flowers planted by the ladies' club[00:01:13]

And took the city founder statue down[00:01:20]

Since consolidated whozit subdivision of[00:01:24]

Universal what you call it bought my old hometown[00:01:29]

Yeah the picture show has had it where[00:01:40]

I used to spend my saturdays[00:01:43]

With Jean and Roy and pop along[00:01:46]

Now the brotherhood of gismo fixers Local 102[00:01:50]

Is making it their temporary home[00:01:56]

They cut down the maples along maple street[00:02:01]

And of course the pool hall came down[00:02:08]

Since consolidated whozit subdivision of[00:02:13]

Universal what you call it bought my old hometown[00:02:17]
