I heard the news one morning
They said something strange was happening
A weird alien phenomenon
Back then I was living in the desert
Trying hard not to hit the dirt
It was the right time to move on
I kept singin' on and on
While puttin' my boots on
So determined to reach the city
I left everything behind
With nothing, nothing to bear in mind
Ready to face again the humankind
Now I'm walking through downtown
There's now one around
I'm in a ghost town
Tumbleweeds and fuzzy winds
Nothing's making my ears ring
Wondering all the people've gone
Everything I can't forget
Is how to light my cigarette
I'm in a dead set
I'm briefly chasing a three legged hound
It's making me run around
In a circle, a circle, a circle, I guess
Now I'm walking through downtown
There's now one around
I'm in a ghost town
Tumbleweeds and fuzzy winds
Nothing's making my ears ring
Wondering where all the people've gone
Thought I'm ready to face the humankind
It feels like they're living me behind
Like Suzie did once before
Now I'm walking through downtown
There's now one around
Welcome to the ghost town of my heart
