Let me know what you guys think! Also, I have a little lyrics’ br>dispute between my brother…
According to the CD lyrics the br>chorus says ‘and they dammed the river’ but on the recording it
sounds like ‘and they downed the river’. What ever you prefer.Anybody wanna rate it?

(Verse 1)
Well they finally put that red light up in the heart of town
Took the stop sign down, it was shot up anyhow
One night I ran right through it in my Chevrolet
Both police cars came, but I got away

(Chorus 1)
It was a boomtown back in’62, ’til the coal ran out
And a drought came through, and they dammed the river
That we all used to fish
Population 405 and I made it 404 one night
And left the city limit sign layin’ in the ditch
(no chord) (Chorus walk) (B-E walk)
Run plumb over it, leavin’ Metropolis

(Verse 2)
Well, I found myself in a big high-rise with a concrete yard
It ain’t safe after dark, guess this ol’ boy drove too far
Met a girl, fell in love, got married and she’s due in May
Says we’re gonna need more space, I said I know just the place

(Bridge)
Where we can walk down to the country store
And we won’t even have to lock our door
We can still get air and water there for free
She said that sounds good to me

(Chorus 2)
It was a boomtown back in’62, ’til the coal ran out
And a drought came through, and they dammed the river
That we all used to fish
Population 404 and when we pull in it’ll be 3 more
And there’s a city limit sign layin’ in the ditch
(no chord) (Chorus Walk) (B-E walk)
That I need to fix, back in Metropolis
(B-A walk)
I’m almost in Metropolis
(no chord)
And I’m back in Metropolis
