Oliver Wood - Soul of This Town Lyrics

When you come back home boy
You're gonna be so surprised
This little town that you came from
Has just left us behind

Well they knocked down all the places
You and me would hang around

It's just bricks and stone skin and bone
But what about the soul of this town

Did you see that big ol' high-rise
Where Sonny's used to be
Well he fought till it was high time
Now he's in Sault Sainte Marie

Millie's tryin to keep the diner
Tryin hard not to drown

Its just bricks and stone, skin and bone
But what about the soul of this town
What about the soul of this town

They say they cleaned up all the projects
Welcomed everyone to stay
But the rent keeps on rising
And pushing everybody away

How can it be with all that money
There's not enough to go around

It's just bricks and stone, skin and bone
But what about the soul of this town
What about the soul of this town
What about the soul of this town
