Main street u.s.a boarded up and dry
Knowin what once was here just makes me wanna cry
Used to be the favorite place
Now what remains are memories even time cannot erase
Old man johnson s storewhere we grew up too fast
All that remains today are echoes from the past
Used to be a boomin town
All that s left is either broken up or broken down
Singingoh ahoh ahoh ahoh
Where we used to belong
There ain t nobody home
Saidoh ahoh ahoh ahoh
You can knock all you want
Butain t nobody home
Packed upmoved awayrunnin from the past
Leaving behind the dusty dreams and broken glass
Used to be a busy town
Noweverybody passes throughbut they don t stick around
chorus
Was a newsstand on the corner
Right next to the barber shop
And down the street there
That s where all the kids would stop
And they would tease the neighbor s bulldog
Laugh and run away
Nowthere s no one left who knows the truth in what you say
chorus
final chorus
