Downtown's all closed down They've boarded up all the windows Just like an old ghost town The storefronts are empty There's no one around Downtown's all closed down
A small town in Texas by the courthouse in the square The middle of the afternoon and there's nobody there Well I shook my head and wondered Where the businesses had gone There used to be everything that you'd ever need Now just the bank's still holdin' on
Cause downtown's all closed down They've boarded up all the windows Just like an old ghost town The storefronts are empty There's no one around Downtown's all closed down
The old drugstore is vacant And the café's locked its doors The movie marquis is falling down There's no more hardware store So I sat down on a bench I watched a car go driving by I wondered what had killed downtown And how the people could let it die
Because downtown's all closed down They've boarded up all the windows Just like an old ghost town The storefronts are empty There's no one around Downtown's all closed down
The railroad brought the people here Now the interstate draws them away It moved the steady business east Left these old buildings behind to stay But some folks in town remember A time not too long ago When a film called Casablanca played At the town square picture show
Now downtown's all closed down They've boarded up all the windows Just like an old ghost town The storefronts are empty There's no one around Downtown's all closed down
The storefronts are empty There's no one around Downtown's all closed down
