The Town

Los Lobos

A car rolls by way down low 
There's a name on a wall that I know 

I heard a shot go off in the night 
My father said everything is alright 
In the town where I come from 

Some kids are playing out in the yard 
A mother says "don't wander too far" 

I can go there when I dream 
I close my eyes and it's all I see 
The town where I come from 

I know it's where my heart will be found 
It's where I'll finally lay myself down 

I can go there when I dream 
I close my eyes and it's all I see 
The town where I come from
