Delaneytown from Future Tense by Joshua David Mitchell

As I walk upon the sandy shore,
and watch the sun descend
and fall onto the ocean floor as it waits to rise again,
oh, I think I am a lucky man.
The most lucky man around!
To be living where my life began
here in sweet Delaneytown.

And the people smile their pleasant smiles
as they live their pleasant days.
Everybody has a pleasant song they can play.
There are few that's ever left the isle,
there are few that's parted ways.
And I'm sure they must regret it now;
yes, I'm sure they wish they stayed

In Delaneytown.
In Delaneytown,
you are safe from choppy waters;
you will never drown
in Delaneytown.
Yes, Delaneytown!
Days are filled with sunny weather
'til the sun goes down
on Delaneytown,
Delaneytown.

Generations of my family name
have all lived their lives up here.
I expect my kids to do the same
in this town here by the pier.
And those kids will be so grateful.
The most grateful kids around!
Saying "we're so blessed to raise all
of our kids in Delaneytown!"

What a comfort it is to my heart
that I'll never have to grieve,
never wonder what I ever could have achieved!
No, I stayed right here; I played my part!
I'm not burdened or bereaved!
And I know my children feel the same,
and I know they'll never leave.

Leave Delaneytown.
Not Delaneytown.
Never face the stormy weather.
Never fight or drown.
Not in Delaneytown.
Your home's Delaneytown!
Other places will defeat you.
They will beat you down.
But not Delaneytown.
Not Delaneytown!
Delaneytown.

As I walk home from the sandy shore,
as I walk home from the sea,
as the sun falls to the ocean floor
just to hide itself from me,
oh, I think I am a lucky man.
The most lucky man around!
To be living where my life began,
here in sweet Delaneytown!
