What Are The Lyrics For Allentown By Elton John?
Well, we're living here in Allentown
And they're closing all the factories down Out in Bethlehem, they're killing time Filling out forms Standing in line Well, our fathers fought the Second World War Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore Met our mothers at the USO Asked them to dance Danced with them slow And we're living here in Allentown But the restlessness was handed down And it's getting very hard to stay Well, we're waiting here in Allentown For the Pennsylvania we never found For the promises our teachers gave If we worked hard If we behaved So the graduations hang on the wall But they never really helped us at all No, they never taught us what was real Iron and coke Chromium steel And we're waiting here in Allentown But they've taken all the coal from the ground And the union people crawled away Every child had a pretty good shot To get at least as far as their old man got But something happened on the way to that place They threw an American flag in our face Well, I'm living here in Allentown And it's hard to keep a good man down But I won't be getting up today Hey, hey, hey, oh, oh And it's getting very hard to stay And we're living here in Allentown |
