My Town (G. Kooymans/B. Hay) 1980 Prisoner Of The Night


My town sittin’ on the ocean, my town paradise livin’
My town, my town is alright
I’ve got fine friends livin’ ‘round the corner, crazy friends party every night night
My friends, my friends are alright


Give me some time to make up your mind, give me some time to pack a Samsonite
Gotta start lookin’ for the signs, the signs leadin’ to my town


We’ve got big girls sittin’ in the red light, pretty girls bakin’ in the sunlight
Our girls, our girls are alright
Well I got no fear for the cops and the robber, I drink beer with the drunks and the dealer
Our town, my town is alright


Give me some time to make up your mind, give me some time to pack a Samsonite
We’re all gonna set this city on fire , come alive down in my town


How about your town baby, how about your town baby
All about my town baby, all about my my my


My town floatin’ down the river, my town lies dreamin’ in the valley
My town, my town is alright
We’ve got nightclubs, discotheques, theatres, shoeshine and cheap parking meters
We’ve got hotels, motels, a line


Give me some time to make up your mind, give me some time to pack a Samsonite
We’re all gonna set this city on fire, we’re on fire down in my town
Get down in my town


My town…
