lyrics

When I head back to my home town to catch up with old friends
The well worn path is overgrown with people I don’t get
I know that time keeps marching on and things don’t stay the same
The things I hold close to my heart will never come this way, again.

And I wonder where the old folks went who called this town a home
Made themselves a peaceful life worked fingers to the bone
The Super 8 camera in my mind takes me to a different time
Things were so much simpler then
When I remember when

The farming man and the mining man have long since gone away
The dirt they worked beneath my feet still looks the same
A deep foundation, never changing bears a shifting load
It’s all that’s left of what I knew and the memories I hold

You know history’s been written here since 1839
The city brothers smile and say the old town’s doing fine
No matter how they change this place, my heart will always be
By the Tullaroop Creek just on dusk as the sun sinks through the trees
