  • We all live on the edge of town
    Where we all live ain't a soul around
    People start a-comin'
    All we do is just a-grin
    Said we gotta move out
    'Cause the city's movin' in
    I said we gotta move out
    'Cause the city's movin' in

    Tell me who you know
    And I'll tell you who, too
    Go see my friend and he'll set you free
    Tell me what you see and
    Maybe I can go too
    No one knows the way but maybe me

    Nobody goes there
    Nobody shows where
    Nobody knows where you can find me, yeah

    Good mornin' glory, hallelujah to you
    What is the story, what's been goin' through ya
    Livin' like a king of the fat of the land
    Workin' like a dog in a rock n' roll band

    Movin', we're gettin' out
    Movin', without a doubt
    Movin', we're goin' far
    We're movin', oh yes we are

    Nobody goes there
    Nobody shows where
    Nobody goes where you can find me
    Nobody knows there
    Nobody shows where
    Nobody goes where you can find me, ah
    Oh, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy...

    Level with God
    And you're in tune with the universe
    Talk with yourself
    And you'll hear what you wanna know
    Gotta rise above
    'Cause below it's only gettin' worse
    Life in time
    Will take you where you wanna go

    Where you wanna go, where you wanna go
    Where you goin'

    Good mornin' glory, hallelujah to you
    What is the story, what's been goin' through ya
    Livin' like a king of the fat of the land
    Workin' like a dog in a rock n' roll band

    Movin', we're gettin' out
    Movin', yeah, without a doubt
    Movin', we're goin' far
    We're movin', oh yes we are

    Nobody knows there
    Nobody shows where
    Nobody goes where you can find me
    Nobody knows there
    Nobody shows where
    Nobody goes where you can't find me
    Round n' round

    We all live on the edge of town
    Where we all live ain't a soul around
    People start a-comin'
    All we do is just a-grin
    We gotta move out
    'Cause the city's movin' in
    I said we gotta move out
    'Cause the city's movin' in

  • Luna Loud from Royal Woods, MichiganI heard that the line, "Good morning glory, hallelujah to ya!", that "morning glory" is slang for morning wood. Heh.
  • Bob from Jackson, MichiganOne of their best. A female friend said she bought the album for Dream On. When her boyfriend, my bud, played the whole thing, she said, about that song.....Wow! I bought this for Dream On. I didn't know this song was on it!
