Lyrics

Everytown

A Johnny come lately to this old town
Driving me crazy
No more foolin’ around
I’ve been all over tryin' to find my place
Feelin’ like a misfit
In this silly human race

This town is just like every town
But I think I like it in this town
Maybe I’ll stay for awhile
A misfit living in Everytown

Work all day in the factory
Pay the bills on time
The unemployment line
Always on your mind
It’s right around the corner in this town

Just like every town
You’ve got to roll with the punches
In this town
Maybe I’ll see you around
Living here in Everytown

All my life I tried to do what’s right
But now I’m here where I don’t belong
Just singin' a song to carry me over

In this town it’s just like every town
But I think I like it in this town
Maybe I’ll stay for awhile
A misfit living in this town
Just like every town
You’ve got to roll with the punches
In this town
Maybe I’ll see you around
We’re all misfits living in Everytown
