Lyrics
Daddy worked at the sawmill
just like his daddy did
pushing lumber all day long
to feed his little kids
Mama stayed on cleaning
you could hear her all day long
her voice made everybody smile
mamma sure could sing a song
All the fireflies in the summertime
such a peaceful sound
Take me to Logtown
Take me to Logtown
I’ve been waiting for such a long time
Take me to Logtown
Take me to small town
The only place I can leave this world behind
When the days are long and hot
we had a well to draw water from
And mom would make us sweet tea as we’d bathe underneath the sun
Some days after school
daddy sent us to the store
and I'd walk down that old dirt road that led to our front door
All the leaves on the cypress trees sticking straight above the ground
Take me to Logtown
Take me to Logtown
I’ve been waiting for such a long time
Take me to Logtown
Take me to small town
The only place I can leave this world behind
Can you feel it?
Ooh I can feel just like I'm there
Can you feel it?
I can smell the suckles in the air
When it's time for me to leave this life
and lay my worries down
Take me to Logtown
Take me to Logtown
I’ve been waiting for such a long time
Take me to Logtown
Take me to small town
It’s the only place I can ease my worried mind
Yeah it’s the only place I can ease my worried mind
ooh it’s the only place I can leave this world behind
