We all live on the edge of town
Where we all live ain’t a soul around
People start a-comin’
All we do is just a-grin
Said we gotta move out
‘Cause the city’s movin’ in
I said we gotta move out
‘Cause the city’s movin’ in
Tell me who you know
And I’ll tell you who, too
Go see my friend and he’ll set you free
Tell me what you see and
Maybe I can go too
No one knows the way but maybe me
Nobody goes there
Nobody shows where
Nobody knows where you can find me, yeah
Good mornin’ glory, hallelujah to you
What is the story, what’s been goin’ through ya
Livin’ like a king of the fat of the land
Workin’ like a dog in a rock n’ roll band
Movin’, we’re gettin’ out
Movin’, without a doubt
Movin’, we’re goin’ far
We’re movin’, oh yes we are
Nobody goes there
Nobody shows where
Nobody goes where you can find me
Nobody knows there
Nobody shows where
Nobody goes where you can find me, ah
Oh, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy
Level with God
And you’re in tune with the universe
Talk with yourself
And you’ll hear what you wanna know
Gotta rise above
‘Cause below it’s only gettin’ worse
Life in time
Will take you where you wanna go
Where you wanna go, where you wanna go
Where you goin’
Good mornin’ glory, hallelujah to you
What is the story, what’s been goin’ through ya
Livin’ like a king of the fat of the land
Workin’ like a dog in a rock n’ roll band
Movin’, we’re gettin’ out
Movin’, yeah, without a doubt
Movin’, we’re goin’ far
We’re movin’, oh yes we are
Nobody knows there
Nobody shows where
Nobody goes where you can find me
Nobody knows there
Nobody shows where
Nobody goes where you can’t find me
Round n’ round
We all live on the edge of town
Where we all live ain’t a soul around
People start a-comin’
All we do is just a-grin
We gotta move out
‘Cause the city’s movin’ in
I said we gotta move out
‘Cause the city’s movin’ in
Yes we do
