Mainstreet

They got the same movie playing down on Main Street
They got the same billboard up
The one from last week
Lets out about ten o’clock
Nobody but the kids are hanging out
Watching the wind in the dark
Down on Main Street
Well the good old boys are drunk by ten on Main Street
They got to get up tomorrow
Do it again dead on their feet
This ain’t no tourist trap
But it draws in the out of state license plate
Looking for a Marlboro man
Down on Main Street
Everybody’s been running scared on Main Street
They wonder why they still live there
It’s so tough to make ends meet
Some call it a joke
Yeah but nobody’s laughing when they’re all alone
And it’s a bitter cold
That’s blowing down Main Street
They wanna blame somebody
But they’re silent and proud
They wanna blame somebody
There’s no one around
Some things will never change
It’s always been this way
It really ain’t so strange
Love it or leave it, they say (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Well it’s closed for the season down on Main Street
That old shopkeep
He went down to Florida just last week
No sun in the winter sky
Nobody but the kids are hanging out
Watching the wind blowing by
Down on Main Street
Ooh, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
