I Remember

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.
