Artist/Band: Mickey Gilley
Lyrics for Song: In a Shanty in Old Shanty Town
Lyrics for Album: Movin' On [Playboy] [1975]



(Lord, Shanty Town.)



Well, it's only a shanty down in old Shanty Town

But the roof is all slanty low but it touches the ground

It's just a tumbled down shack by that old, old railroad track

But like a millionaire's mansion it keeps a-calling me back.



Well, I'd give up a palace Lord, if I were a king

But it's more than a palace, it is my everything

There's a queen waiting there she's got rolls in her hair

It's my shanty down in old shanty town.

(Just an old Shanty Town.)



Well, it's only a shanty down in old Shanty Town

But the roof is all slanty low but it touches the ground

It's just a tumbled down shack by that old, old railroad track

But like a millionaire's mansion it keeps calling me back.



Well, I'd give up a palace Lord, if I were a king

But it's more than a palace, it's my everything

There's a queen waiting there she's got rolls in her hair

It's my shanty down in old shanty town.



It's my shanty down in old shanty town...
