THERE AIN'T NO FUN IN THIS TOWN ANYMORE
(Tom T. Hall)


Bobby Bare - 1966


I woke up this mornin' feelin' bad
Thinkin' of the good times that I've had
This town has got a lot of swingin' doors
But there ain't no fun in this town anymore

No there ain't no fun in this town anymore
My mind is weary and my heart is sore
I will admit that I've had fun before
But there ain't no fun in Houston anymore

This town is holdin' memories of mine
About the girl who left me here behind
But memories are not worth stayin' for
And there ain't no fun in this town anymore

There ain't no fun in this town anymore
My mind is weary and my heart is sore
I will admit that I've had fun before
But there ain't no fun in Detroit anymore

If anybody asks you why I'm gone
Just tell 'em that I stayed around too long
They can give what I got comin' to the poor
'Cause there ain't no fun in this town anymore

No there ain't no fun in this town anymore
My mind is weary and my heart is sore
I will admit that I've had fun before
But there ain't no fun in Nashville anymore
No there ain't no fun in Nashville anymore
