company town - the backstays lyrics
[verse 1]
where’d ya go, did ya move away?
over fisherman’s lane?
i don’t know, i don’t know, i don’t know
was it the cuts or the endless shifts
grab your records and skiff
yes, i’ll row, yes, i’ll row, yes, i’ll row
[chorus]
the weight of the day is keeping us down
and i think i’m going insane
in a city caught up like a company town again
[verse 2]
cast off the dock right here by
by the sh0r-, so you see
just how they, just how they, just how they
front the cash for the new bandstand
then twist our arm for crown land
as they do, as they do, as they do
[chorus]
the weight of the day is keeping us down
and i think i’m going insane
in a city caught up like a company town again
[turn]
[verse 3]
no downtown in fundy’s town
long wharf long empty now
yes, it is, yes, it is, yes, it is
company keeps out the company they say
it’s our city, our town
sure it is, sure it is, sure it is
[chorus]
the weight of the day is keeping us down
and i think i’m going insane
in a city caught up like a company town again
[verse 4]
hot off the press, it’s the company’s word
ours thrown out by the herd
as they do, as they do, as they do
