Nobody Home

Main street u.s.a. boarded up and dry Knowin' what once was here just makes me wanna cry Used to be the favorite place here Now what remains are memories even time cannot erase Old man johnson's store where we grew up too fast All that remains today are echoes from the past Used to be a boomin' town yeah Now all that's left is either broken up or broken down Singing "oh ah oh ah oh ah oh" Where we used to belong There ain't nobody home Said "oh ah oh ah oh ah oh" You can knock all you want But ain't nobody home Packed up moved away runnin' from the past Leavin' behind the dusty dreams and broken glass Used to be a busy town now Now everybody passes through but they don't stick around Singing "oh ah oh ah oh ah oh" Where we used to belong There ain't nobody home Said "oh ah oh ah oh ah oh" You can knock all you want But ain't nobody home Oh was a news stand on the corner Right next to the barber shop And down the street there That's where all the kids would stop And they would tease the neighbor's bulldog Laugh and run away Now there's no one left who knows the truth in what you say (say) Now everybody passes through but they don't stick around Singing "oh ah oh ah oh ah oh" Where we used to belong There ain't nobody home Said "oh ah oh ah oh ah oh" You can knock all you want But ain't nobody home "oh ah oh ah oh ah oh" Where we used to belong There ain't nobody home Talk all you want But ain't nobody home Knock all you want But ain't nobody home
