Curtis Eller's American Circus - 1000 Feet Of Throat Lyrics

There's something about the people that been hanging around this place
There's something about these people that'd knock me off my face
I'm never gonna turn my back on this town again
No, I'm never gonna turn my back on this town again

There's something about the shadows that been moving across the ground
And somebody's got the time enough to hang everyone in town
Somebody in the place has got a thousand feet of rope
And if you line up everyone in town there ain't one inch of hope
I'm never gonna turn my back on this town again
No, I'm never gonna turn my back on this town again

HARMONICA SOLO

Half of the people in this town have already closed thir eyes
And nobody's feet are touching the ground, and they're putting on neckties
Well, nobody says a word about the ropes around their necks
And everybody knows who won this time
There ain't no need for a ballot check
I'm never gonna turn my back on this town again
No, I'm never gonna turn my back on this town again
