Shocked Michelle Prodigal Daughter Who Cares? (Ghost Town) Michelle Shocked (Poly Gram Songs, Inc} I was walking down an old dirt road I was feeling out and down I was taking it out on an old tin can When I came upon an old ghost town Doors hanging on one end, you know the scene The background was playing the ``High Noon'' theme There's dust-devils swirling in the heat And sidewinders winding down the street (spooky!) I see a sign that says ``Hotel'' I walk in and I ring the bell Look up at cobweb and my eyes open wider When I see the grin of a Cheshire spider I walk on out, I see a sign that says ``County Jail'' I walk in and I ring a bell I see what used to be a man He's reaching out a bony hand From behind the bars to take the key That's hanging not more than a foot away (spooky!) Walk on out, I see a buzzard up in the sky I squint my eye he's circling low And he's lighting down On what remains of this old ghost town I see a sign that says ``Saloon'' Like I said it's hot high noon So I walk in and I ring the bell. No one answers, so I ring the bell again Although the shells hold only dust I know where to quench this thirst You see my daddy used to tender bar So I know what the secrets are Keep your money in your purse And stash a bottle under the first dots Keep some secrets never tell And those secrets will keep you very well Speaking of keeping, if you're feeling down And you come upon an old ghost town Direct your feet past all the decay The place where things just mellow with age (Am throughout) |
