Текст пісні
Old Mister Riley, he's a regular clock
You can tell the time of day by his morning walk
Betty's Café always fills up fast
Down at Henry's station, Henry pumps the gas
Sure as the sun sets over the ridge
There will always be lovers at the covered bridge
But I'll never have the heart to leave this town
Tried a time or two but I turned around
No matter where I go, this is where I'm bound
And I'll never have the heart to leave this town
You can hear the latest news at the barber shop
Did the county fix the road? Will this rain ever stop?
You can catch a double feature at the movie house
Grab a bite at Betty's when the show lets out
And the bus at the station leaves twice a day
There's always someone looking for a better way
But I'll never have the heart to leave this town
Tried a time or two but I turned around
No matter where I go, this is where I'm bound
And I'll never have the heart to leave this town
Oh, the bus at the station leaves twice a day
There's always someone looking for a better way
But I'll never have the heart to leave this town
Tried a time or two but I turned around
No matter where I go, this is where I'm bound
And I'll never have the heart to leave this town
Never gonna leave, never gonna leave this town
Let the whole world, let the moon and stars fall down
