   When I was in town, I  heard them sing those  songs.
   When I was in town, I  heard them sing so  strong.
   Made my feelings  cry. they  touch my heart  inside.
   When I was in  town, they  made my day  alive.
   People stopping by, as  the songs began to  fly.
   Songs that made them stay so  strong they couldn't go  away.
   Their eyes would fall in  tears, their  skin without that  fear.
   When I was in  town, they  made my day  alive.
   Listening from every age, from  Punkies to grand  mothers.
   From heavys to little children, like  you never seen  before.
   Together they were  standing, as  not a normal  thing to see.
   When I was in  town, I  heard them sing those  songs.
   I bought music cassettes from  the songs, I heard them  sing.
   As everybody did, that  just for curio  sity.
   But for what they get in their  souls, were  life he's with  living for.
   When I was in  town, I  heard them sing those  songs.
   When I was in town, I  heard them sing those  songs.
   When I was in town, I  heard them sing so  strong.
   They made my feelings  cry, they  touch my heart  inside.
   When I was in  town, they  made my days  alive.
