Damn This Town - John Hiatt
They killed my brother
in a poker game
Damn this town, I'm leaving
Daddy stayed drunk
and he died insane
Damn this town, I'm leaving

Momma had to work,
barely raised the kids
Damn this town, I'm leaving
I ain't gonna tell you
what her youngest boy did
Damn this town, I'm leaving
Damn this town,
I mean it this time
Damn this town, I made up my mind
Damn this town, damn this town

I got a sister who's a thief and
she's filled with hate
Now she's got a job
working for the State
Another brother just
got out of the Florida Pen
Wears a bracelet on his ankle so
they know where he's been
Damn this town,
I mean it this time
Damn this town, I made up my mind
Damn this town, damn this town
A couple of sisters
made it out all right
A brother's in the army
fighting for his life
There must be some
kind of reckoning
A righteous judgment
for all these things

That's all I'm gonna say
about my family
Damn this town, I'm leaving
But maybe you'd like to
know a little about me
Damn this town, I'm leaving
I'm 58 years old,
still live at home like a kid
Damn this town, I'm leaving
Now I can't help my momma tell
you what her youngest boy did
Damn this town, I'm leaving
