Everybody Thinks I Left Town

INTRO
Everybody Thinks That I Left Town.
They came and tore my mailbox down.
Just because I been layin’ low,
I got the freeze like 10 below.
It seems like I’m underground.
Everybody Thinks That I Left Town.
SHORTIE
One day I said I’ve had enough.
Hangin’ out became hangin’ tough.
So I sunk back into my hole
And since that day I’ve been a happy soul.
But
Everybody Thinks That I Left Town.
They came and tore my mailbox down.
Got my roof, my floor and walls.
Got my phone but no one calls.
Silence is all around.
Everybody Thinks That I Left Town.
SOLO
It’s easy to fade away
Where on one can spoil your day.
Don’t go out, stay home instead
And people think you’re either in LA or dead.
Everybody Thinks That I Left Town.
They came and tore my mailbox down.
Just because he grass ain’t been mowed
Faolks suppose that I’m on the road
But I’m in here, hunkered down.
One day I walked the streets alone
And stopped outside my happy home
I asked a stranger passing by
Who lived there and he replied,
“Well, there ain’t much use in your hangin’ round.
Everybody knows that he left town.”
Funny how fables fly around.
Everybody Thinks That I Left Town.
