Do you know where I’m gonna go?
None of you have guessed, so none of you can know
If you’ve been, that’s not where I mean
It’s got class and it’s got excellence like you’ve never seen
Your town is dragging me down
Is dragging me down, down, down
Your town is dragging me down
Is dragging me down, down, down
Is it Dublin with it’s culture and it’s wit?
Madrid with it’s marked square?
Paris with it’s bustling cafes?
Hull with it’s musical flair?
Do you know where I’m gonna go?
None of you have guessed, so none of you can know
If you’ve been, that’s not where I mean
It’s got class and it’s got excellence like you’ve never seen
Your town is dragging me down
Is dragging me down, down, down
Your town is dragging me down
Is dragging me down, down, down
F As I watch them drop the grain iFnto your fish tank bGrain

Your town is dragging me down
Is dragging me down, down, down
Your town is dragging me down
Is dragging me down, down, down
Is dragging me down, down, down
Is dragging me down, down, down
Is dragging me down, down, down
