Lyrics

This Old Town

Verse I
This old town where I was born
1200 people maybe more
A simple life filled with family
This old town I call home

It’s the backbone of America

Farmers and Ranchers arrive at noon
In Steves Café they rendezvous
Ragged faces from the sun
A way of life that goes on and on

Chorus
This old town was built from the
Sweat of the brow working families
That toiled with horse and plow
This old town reflects the heartland
Of America you'll find the backbone
Here…here…..in This old town

Verse II
This old town have lost their sons
30 soldiers maybe more
The price of freedom paid with A mothers child
A sacrifice of tears and blood

It’s the backbone of America

This old town still remains
The faces change but names stay the same
Generations built from the love of family
This old town still remains
