Your Town Now

I used to go out quite a lot
Chase to chase and shot to shot
I'm all done with that somehow
And it's your town now

These days the mighty eagle sings
Of money and material things
And the almighty Dow
And it's your town now
Your town now
It's-

From the mountains to the plains
All the towns are wrapped in chains
And the little that the law allows
And it's your town now
It's your town now
It's-

Where are the young bands gonna play?
Where're the old beatniks gonna stay
And not before some corporation bow?
And it's your town now
It's your town now
It's-

So be careful everyone
Cops can get careless with their guns
And then they slip off somehow
And it's your town now
It's your town now
It's-

You young ones it's up to you
To fight the fight and I hope you do
Oh I see in your eyes that you know how
And it's your town now
Your town now

Don't let 'em take the whole damn deal
Don't give up on what you really feel
Ah, the small and local must survive somehow
If it's gonna be your town now
Is it gonna be your town now?
Is it gonna be your town now?
Is it gonna be?
