dom prag - the shoemender lyrics
[verse 1]
i’ve worked in this old town since i was a lad
i am a shoe mender just like my dad
you could say i’m lucky the job that i’ve had
has always been mine thanks to family
it’s been some time since my old man passed on
my mother as well is dead and gone
but their legacy continues with me and my son
working down at the cobblers
but business is slowing down over the years
the rates have gone up just like everywhere here
its getting harder and harder to clear
our overheads, what can you do?
[chorus]
that it’s going, it’s going, it’s gone
just look what the town has become
and look at the way that they’re carrying on
well it’s going, it’s going, it’s gone
[verse 2]
today the old shops up and down the high street
are all hanging on by the skin of their t__th
good local businesses cannot compete
with the retail park out on the ringroad
i’m usually not one to moan and complain
the times they are changing again and again
move out of the way or catch up with the train
but don’t you just sit and despair
but even an old_fashioned fellow like me
can take a look round him and easily see
this isn’t the way that our town has to be
it doesn’t take much common sense
[chorus]
but it’s going, it’s going, it’s gone
just look what the town has become
and look at the way that they’re carrying on
well it’s going, it’s going, it’s gone
[verse 3]
away goes the butcher, the baker, our pub
the greengrocer, the book shop, the old social club
now its betting shops, starbucks or just boarded up
i don’t know this place any more
is it developers greedy for more?
or billionaires with their money offshore ?
or is it the people who make up the law?
all i know is that my town is dying
i think of my dad and my mum in the ground
they’d turn in their graves if they saw us now
and then weep for us all in our little town
and what we’ve been forced to become
[chorus]
well it’s going, it’s going, it’s gone
just look what the town has become
and look at the way that they’re carrying on
well it’s going, it’s going, it’s gone
[chorus repeat]
and it’s going, it’s going, it’s gone
just look what the town has become
and look at the way that they’re carrying on
well it’s going, it’s going, it’s gone
[final repeat]
and look at the way that they’re carrying on
well it’s going, it’s going, it’s gone
it’s going, it’s going, it’s gone
it’s going, it’s going, it’s gone
