Sawmill Town (Larry W. Jones 11/03/2007) (song#5138)
A sawmill town on a dead end street
You're nowhere around and I can't sleep
With you still on my mind
Dear, I still dream of you, it's true
I know he bought you a diamond ring
I'm sure he can buy you fancy things
But he can't buy true love
The kind of love I have for you
The kind of love I have for you
Would have lasted endlessly
We planned a life of man and wife
But that now can never be
I know he bought you a diamond ring
I'm sure he can buy you fancy things
That you won't find in a sawmill town
But he can't buy true love
His will only be hand-me-downs
- instrumental -
Remember you came from a sawmill town
Bright lights came from the sawdust burning low
It's just a little sawmill town, I know
But it's here you will find real love can grow
You might live in a mansion on a hill
But you will still be blue
Cause he can't buy true love
The kind of love I have for you
Remember you came from a sawmill town
Bright lights came from the sawdust burning low
It's just a little sawmill town, I know
But it's here you will find real love can grow
