And the fireworks were exploding
As the new year came to pass
And the markets were all crashing
And the world was changing fast
Don't worry Evelyn
Don't be scared
Don't worry Evelyn
I am prepared
You were only 27
When you closed the family store
I had three weeks left of working
I'll have three months looking for more
Don't worry Evelyn
Don't close the door
Don't worry Evelyn
We've been here before
Believe me Evelyn
Just give it some time
This straight and narrow we walk
Ain't no perfectly straight line
Don't worry Evelyn
Some time will tell
Don't worry Evelyn
All will be well

1928
They had a reason to build this place
And the old steel mill on the top of the hill
Don't see much work these days
When I turned 17
I couldn't wait to leave
Got a friend who's still here he works at the pier
Says it ain't what it used to be
But I don't remember this town
I don't remember this town
Where the hell was I when it all came down?
I don't remember this town
And the lights on the liquor store
I don't know what they need them for
And the bar where I came it still looks the same
But it costs a few dollars more
Funny how it seems to me
That the sun don't shine on these streets
And the river erodes the rust from these roads
That once carried me
But I don't remember this town
I don't remember this town
Where the hell was I when it all came down?
I don't remember this town
I don't remember this town
Some kid just like me
Trying to grow something in these weeds
And if nothing grows by the time I get old
It might be where they bury me
But I don't remember this town
I don't remember this town
Where the hell was I when it all came down?
I don't remember this town
Where'd everybody go now?
Ain't nothing but a hole in the ground
Where the hell where you when the rain came through?
I don't remember this town
I don't remember this town
I don't remember this town

It’s hard to accurately describe how much I love this album. Hearing how the songs came together in studio, after hearing them on the pandemic livestreams, is a true joy. Glen’s writing and singing are unrivaled, this whole collection is amazing. Thank you, Glen, for your beautiful music, for continuing to tour, and for just being a stellar human.
