Down Home Town

Jeff Lynne

The world outside don't like us much
'Cause they ain't got our classy touch
But they ain't good enough to breathe
This town's good air, we make 'em leave

But it's no, no, no
Really can't do that
No, no, no
Down hometown

No monkey business in this town
Who do you think you're pushing 'round?
This town's respectable and clean
Just look around, you'll see what I mean

But it's no, no, no
Really can't do that
No, no, no
Down hometown

Down hometown
Down hometown
Down hometown
Down hometown
Down hometown
Down hometown

But it's no, no, no
Really can't do that
No, no, no
Down hometown

We got the best town band around
Just listen to their crazy sound
When they get hot, they gonna blow
You see them winnin' every show

Wish I was in the land of Dixie
Look away! Look away!
Look away! Look away!

Down hometown (gotta get down, gotta get down)
Down hometown (gotta get down, gotta get down)
Down hometown
Down hometown (ooh, I think they're coming down now)
Down hometown

But it's no, no, no (no)
Really can't do that (she loves you)
No, no, no (I can't do that)
Down hometown

Wish I was in the land of Dixie
Look away! Look away!
