lyrics

Every town is worth a song
A reference to Ralph McTell

We have seen a lot of towns, we were northward-, we were westwardbound
From Trondheim to the San Francisco Bay
Some of them they had a soul, some of them a heart of gold
But all of them were diamonds on our way
We stayed there for a while, we said hello, we said goodbye
Then we packed our bags and hurried on
I wanna keep them in my mind, save them for the empty time
'cause I know every town is worth a song

Remember the song of Ralph McTell, he painted London oh so well
And Jaques Brel portrayed the piers of Amsterdam
Remember we met Jackson Browne on a corner in old Winslow town
And Albert Hammond sang “New York City here I come”
Billy Joel he touched my heart with his song 'bout Leningrad
Yes, every single town is some ones home
A part of me needs a home, a part of me needs rambling on
'cause I know every town is worth a song

So my love let's carry on, another town, another song
There are still so many diamonds on our way
I love you for your rambling soul, I love you for your heart of gold
And I love you for your smile in Santa Fe
Let's stay here for a while, let's say hello, let's say goodbye
And then we'll pack our bags and hurry on
I wanna keep them in my mind, save them for the empty times
'cause I know every town is worth a song
