What's Wrong With People
by Jim Tyrrell

I came by train but an hour ago
In search of dinner and a beer
My request was met with voices low
We don't serve that around here

What's wrong with people in this town
What's wrong with the people in this town
What's wrong with people in this town

In every single shop I tried
I simply couldn't win
And every single passerby
Accused me of livin' in sin [chorus]

So back to the train with a ticket in hand
And off to another town
Where hopefully they'll serve a man
Without this runaround [chorus]
