Your Town
If you want to live in the kind of a town, like the kind of a town you like,
You needn't slip your clothes in a bag, and start on a long, long hike.
You'll only find what you left behind, for there's nothing that's really new.
It's a knock at yourself when you knock your town. It isn't your town - it's YOU.
Real towns are not made by men afraid, lest somebody else gets ahead,
When everybody works and nobody shirks, you can raise a town from the dead.
And if - while you make your personal stake, your neighbor can make one, too,
Your town will be what you want to see. It isn't your town - its YOU.
