Jerry Lee Lewis - Shantytown lyrics

SHANTYTOWN

Writer Johnny Cash - June Carter

« © '67 Anne Rachel Music, ASCAP / Song Of Cash Music, ASCAP »

(I live down in Shantytown where chicken's twenty cents a pound)

And if you live on such solid ground whatcha doin' down in Shantytown

Whatcha doin' down in Shantytown

Well I'm back on your side of the tracks

Have come back for me to take you back

Back to your high society to your coctails and your teas

I'll look up but don't look down cause we got pride in Shantytown

(I live down in Shantytown...

Behind the walls of your shackled heart beats pure

While the rich have a love to endure

Well is the gold in your crown turning black

Is there something here in Shantytown that keeps you coming back

I live down in Shantytown...
