C Hi-i often Gtake_ these Amnight shift Cwalks_ when the Fforeman's not aAmround_
I Fturn my back_ on the Ccooling Fstacks_ and Cmake for Dmopen Gground_
Far Amout beFyond the Gtank-farm Cfence_ where the Fgas flare makes_ no Amsound_
I forFget_ the stink_ and I alCways Fthink_ back Cto that GEastern town_

C I remember Gback six Amyears aCgo_ this FWestern life I Amchose_
And Fevery day_ the Cnews would Fsay_ some Cfactory's Dmgone to Gclose_
Well I Amcould have Fstayed_ to Gtake the Cdole_ but FI'm not one of Amthose_
I take Fnothing free_ and Cthat makes Fme_ an iCdiot_ GI supC _pose_
So I Fbid fareGwell_ to the CEastern town_ I Amnever Gmore will Csee_
But Fwork I Gmust_ so I Ceat this dust_ and Ambreathe reDmfi_-ne_-Gry_
Oh I Ammiss the Fgreen_ and the Gwoods and Cstreams_ and I Fdon't like cowboy Amclothes_
FBut I like being free_ and Cthat makes Fme_ an iCdiot_ GI supCpose_

C So come all you Gfine_ young 'Amfellers Cwho've_ been Fbeaten to the Amground_
This Fwestern life's_ no CparaFdise_ but it's Cbetter than Dmlying Gdown_
Oh the Amstreets aren't Fclean_ and there's Gnothing Cgreen_ and the Fhills are dirtyAm brown_
But the Fgovernment dole_ will Crot your Fsoul_ back Cthere in Gyour home Ctown_
So I Fbid fareGwell_ to the CEastern town_ I Amnever Gmore will_ Csee_
There's Fself-resGpect_ and a Csteady cheque_ in Amthis reDmfi_-ne_-Gry_
You will Ammiss the Fgreen_ and the Gwoods and Cstreams_ and the Fdust will fill yourAm nose_
But Fyou'll be free_ and Cjust like Fme_ an Cidiot_ GI supCpose_
