skowhegan - al duvall lyrics

Loading...

so, let me get this straight: i sing you a song, you give me a drink? you’re on, pal. i sing in here?
this song is a song i wrote about my hometown, skowhegan, maine

skowhegan, i know i’m almost there
the tanneries’ odor’s in the air
i wonder if they’ll let me in the fair
back home in maine
where someone i left alone and blue
a someone who promised to be true
is waiting**but i can’t remember who
back home in mainе
oh, i’ve had nothing for oh so many years
that i’ve been cryin’ somеone else’s tears

been seein’ the sights this country has
from sing sing way out to alcatraz
but no place is as nice a prison as
my home in maine
the shine of my town’s begun to fade
they’re closing the mills and i’m afraid
the lines will be long for public aid
back home in maine

a flood of memories rushes through me yet
for i’ve forgotten to drink to forget

so barber, be careful with my nose
i washed up and found a line of clothes
i want to look decent when i goes
back home to maine

…well, can i have that drink now?
