The man
building his dam
Then he told us it was all for the
they were tearing it down
They drowning our town
In the name of progress I

We our heads proud
'Til the bought us out
And there wasn't much we could do
But go to Town Hall
To the last firemen's
It was out in red, white and blue

Come, come my hand
Twirl to the band 'round the old Town
Come, come take my
This is our last
at the Farewell Ball

The and Gibsons
and Dickinsons
Everyone dressed to the
They into town
from miles around
To pay respects one last time

A filled the room
And the band stopped the
As the midnight bell slowly
I saw men break down
At the of a town
the orchestra played "Auld Lang Syne"

Come, come take my
Twirl to the band the old Town Hall
Come, come my hand
called the last dance
Down at the Ball

now I recall
How the waters all
And made islands of the of hills
And families and
Now scattered like
All in my memory still
I walk down there
the reservoir pines
To listen to the wind on the
It's nothing has changed
I can still hear the
Of the last tune the played

Come, take my hand
Twirl to the band the old Town Hall
Come, come my hand
They've the last dance
