ELO Lyrics

"Down Home Town" lyrics


The world outside don't like us much,
'Cause they ain't got our classy touch.
But they ain't good enough to breathe
This town's good air, we make 'em leave.

But it's no, no, no, you really can't do that,
No, no, no, down home town.

No monkey business in this town.
Well, who do you think you're pushing round?
This town's respectable and clean,
Just look around, you'll see what I mean.

But it's no, no, no, you really can't do that,
No, no, no, down home town.

Down home town, down home town,
Down home town, down home town,
Down home town, down home town.

But it's no, no, no, you really can't do that,
No, no, no, down home town.

We got the best town band around,
Just listen to their crazy sound.
When they get hot, they gonna blow,
You see them winnin' every show.

Look away! Look away!
Look away! Look away!

Down home town (gotta get down, gotta get down),
Down home town (gotta get down, gotta get down),
Down home town,
Down home town (oh, I think they're coming down now),
Down home town.

But it's no, no, no, you really can't do that,
No, no, no, down home town.

Look away! Look away!
