Sundown Lyrics

The sun is hanging low on the skyline On this sleepy old Ohio town The people think that change is the devil So the sun is not allowed to go down

And the drivers eyes are glued to the rearview Cuz his car is always in reverse And if you race to where you've already been, then You are always gonna get there first

Welcome to the town of the sundown Welcome to the town of the sundown Welcome to the land that time forgot Welcome to the town of the sundown Welcome to the town of the sundown It sure ain't much, but it's the only town I've got

Every time I open the paper To the letters to the editor page The trogolodytes who can't keep their mouths shut They've really got me in a fumin' rage
This self-appointed king of the virtues Trying to sell us what we threw away He's a dumpster-diving prophet He could rule the USA

Welcome to the town of the sundown Welcome to the town of the sundown Welcome to the land that time forgot Welcome to the town of the sundown Welcome to the town of the sundown It sure ain't much, but it's the only town I've got

So this is what our children inherit It's what our parents left behind for us The trophies from our grandpa's old basement With a thicker coat of rust and dust

I guess there's nothing left to discover So let's just park our cars and rest Cuz the mission here's accomplished Don't it feel like a success?
