City Boy - Goodbye Laurelie Lyrics
The grass is overgrowing on the garden rail.And crickets call a chorus I remember.well,Calling me, that old familiar thunder. Writingletters I always meant to send you.When every second feature showed Niagara Falls We weresitting pretty, feeling twice as tall. Making faces at the madmanin the alleyway. We laughed at every cowboy who stopped tofill his glass.(Chorus)Calling, Goodbye Laurelie, dirty town lullabye.Goodbye Laurelie, goodbye.Goodbye Laurelie, dirty town lullabye.Goodbye Laurelie . . .When all the city papers say you're doing well You'restill a small town story that the neighbours tell Whenyou smile and say hello to strangers You're still thefoolish boy they all remember.The crazy Jane I chased every other night. Hasreappeared in white like a virgin bride. I'm theface in the comer of the photograph A wild manat the weddding, fixing his tie.(Chorus)Calling, Goodbye Laurelie dirty town lullabye.Goodbye Laurelie, goodbye.Goodbye Laurelie, dirty town lullabye.Goodbye Laurelie . . .
