The rush is on & I should be gone Who am I to stay so long? Words getting round bout what they found Out there in boomtown The lights outshine the moon at night And dreams roll in on a high tide The shadows never hit the ground Baby Im gonna shine in boomtown Ill be there in Boomtown
CHORUS
Every crack in the sidewalk could hold 1,000 tears Theres a fresh stretch of black top thatll get me out of here Stand up on your rooftops and sing your prayers out loud They still wont make a sound, still wont make a sound Out there in Boomtown Wolfman on the radio Cutting across the wild plateau Says the clocks have come unwound Out here in boomtown, out here in boomtown
CHORUS
Seasons come and seasons go When work round here is getting slow Might be north, it might be south Ill be bound for Boomtown Youll find me there in Boomtown
