VERSE; I REMEMBER A country town People were real
people And were proud To say what they meant Did
what they said I REMEMBER so well This was where
my children And I were born.
VERSE; I REMEMBER this country town Where people
were loyal And knew everyone Neighbors were friendly
Not afraid to call I REMEMBER Oh,
I REMEMBER Not many years ago.
CHORUS; I REMEMBER when factories had to close And
generation farmers lost their farms Friends and neighorbors
lost their homes Oh, I REMEMBER I wonder where did
the people go? VERSE; I REMEMBER the day I left
Kissed my mother And tried not cry I never saw not
cry again It was more than a country town It was
a town Where my ancestors farmed Only a short time
ago BRIDGE; I REMEMBER A sign read: When the last
person leaves Turn out the lights I REMEMBER,
I REMEMBER Oh, I REMEMBER CHORUS; REPEAT Wonder
where did the people go.
