Magic Town

They told me, "the streets are all paved with gold!"

But these dirty sidewalks are gray, and concrete cold

They said neon lights were a beautiful sight

But how 'bout this one blinking in my room all night?

And where's the magic in this magic town?

Where's the good life they said could be found?

Where's the magic to make all my big dreams come true?

I gotta find it soon, just like I said I'd do

They said, "in this town, you get rich in no time!"

But here I am and I'm down to my last dime

I just don't know why I bother to try

When nobody here gives a hang if I live or die

And where's the magic in this magic town?

Where's the good life they said could be found?

Where's the magic to make all my big dreams come true?

Oh, it's so lonely here, too far from home and you

And where's the magic in this magic town?

Where's the good life they said could be found?

Where's the magic to make all my big dreams come true?

I haven't found it here, and it gets me down

But I can't give it to

This magic town

This magic town

This magic town
