Sheppards Town - The Go Set

In Sheppard’s Town the cars go round, with stereos that shake the ground

Two hotels and the Saturday game, the hand on the clock is slow to change

When the factory stack bellows steam, is the only time a cloud is seen

For the rains they are a long lost friend that never returned home again

Waiting for the rain, waiting for the wind of change

Waiting for the rain, waiting for the Saturday game

In Sheppard’s Town

And the High School kids still talk of rebellion, but someone here forgot to

tell them,

To forget about those hopes and dreams, and live a life by simple means

One in five forges new frontiers, and return home after many years

But still the rains don’t fall on the ground, for the thirsty changeless

Sheppard’s Town

Waiting for the rain, waiting for the wind of change

Waiting for the rain, waiting for the Saturday game

And a new highway with an extra lane

In Sheppard’s Town
