作曲 : Paul Simon
In my little town
I grew up believ--ing

God keeps His eye on us all

And He used to lean upon me

As I pledged allegiance to the wall

Lord I recall
My little town
Coming home after school

Flying my bike past the gates
Of the factories

My mom doing the laundry

Hanging our shirts
In the dirty breeze

And after it rains
There's a rainbow
And all of the colors are black

It's not that the colors aren't there

It's just imagin-ation they lack

Everything's the same
Back in my little town

Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town

Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town

In my little town

I never meant nothin'
I was just my fathers son

Saving my money

Dreaming of glory

Twitching like a finger
On the trigger of a gun

Leaving nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town

Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
