Nobody Home (2022 Remaster)

[Verse 1]
Main street USA boarded up and dry
Knowin' what once was here just makes me want to cry
Used to be the favorite place, yeah
Now what remains are memories even time cannot erase

[Verse 2]
Old man Johnson's store, where we grew up too fast
All that remains today are echoes from the past
Used to be a boomin' town, yeah
Now all that's left is either broken up or broken down

[Chorus]
Singing, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
Where we usеd to belong, there ain't nobody homе
Said, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
You can knock all you want, but ain't nobody home

[Verse 3]
Packed up, moved away, runnin' from the past
Leaving behind the dusty dreams and broken glass
Used to be a busy town, yeah
Now everybody passes through, but they don't stick around

[Chorus]
Singing, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
Where we used to belong, there ain't nobody home
Said, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
You can knock all you want, but ain't nobody home

[Bridge]
Oh, was a newsstand on the corner, right next to the barber shop
And down the street there, that's where all the kids would stop
And they would tease the neighbor's bulldog, laugh and run away
And now there's no one left who knows the truth in what you say

[Refrain]
Everybody passes through, but they don't stick around

[Chorus]
Singing, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
Where we used to belong, there ain't nobody home
Said, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
You can knock all you want, but ain't nobody home, oh-oh-oh

[Outro]
Oh-ah, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
Where we used to belong, there ain't nobody home
Talk all you want, but ain't nobody home
Knock all you want, but ain't nobody home
