John Kay - Nobody Lives Here Anymore Lyrics
Words and music by John KayI fried in the sun just outside San BernadinoFlagged me a ride in a rattletrap fordRollin' back east to the northern borderI'm back in town to find my favorite folkBut nobody knowsand nobody cares'Cause nobody plays here, nobody stays hereNobody lives here anymoreI drift by the winos near the greyhound stationSearching for shelter like a castawayBut there are lookers and lechers in a pagan bookstoreThat once held a home where I could sing and playNothing is left but the faded street signsTo tell me that I knew this place before'Cause nobody plays here, nobody stays hereNobody lives here anymoreEveryone warned me not to look for memoriesNothing at all ever remains the sameNow I'm turning around, I'm rollin' back homeLeaving no one behind that will remember my nameBut nobody knowsand nobody cares'Cause nobody plays here, nobody stays hereNobody lives here anymore Black Leather Music, Inc.
