CWe walk up the paths of the banks of the mighty SFusquehanna

 With our Cfeet made muddy by your tributaries

 That tFrickle their way to the Chesapeake

 It's like we Amfollow I-83 down to the harbor cities

CStrip malls and the tar-mac

AmPeople swirling and teaming

CIt seemed so exciting, but now it seems like such a blight

CI grew up near Kentucky's Mt. FZion Road

CAll that was there was some old cemeFtary

 I wanted Amnothing more than to be able to walk to the sCtore

 Now AmI don't live there but there's too many stores

 Some Capartments and a Sunoco

 And I wondeCr what did they do with the Fbodies?

 And I wondeCr what did they do with the Fbodies?

COh!

 And I Cmiss that place behind my house where I

FHiked and climbed and played

 Where I'd Cditch this noisy century or just

FHid out from the decade

 M-I Amhomes thought it could stand to be updCated

 Forced it all intAmo a grid until it looks like the funny Cpages

CWith every trace of light that seems confFined within a frame

 The Cfaces move from day to day but the Fstrips all look the same

 And the Ampunchlines are resoundingly unfCunny

 For those trapped Amin this architecture of easy monCey

 And I Cfeel like this all come to no Fgood

 This kids who Cpopulate these cul-de-sacs will Fnever know what stood

 Beneath their Amcookie-cutter houses, fCields and streams and woods

 They'll sit in Amcars and wait for mom to drive them

COut of this boring neighborhood

COh!
