I'm not one to look behind, I know that times must change
But over there in Barry town they do things very strange
And though you're not my enemy, I like things like they used tobe
And though you'd like some company, I'm standing by myself
Go play with someone else
I can see by what you carry that you came from Barry Town
Don't believe I'm taken in by stories I have heard
I just read the Daily News and swear by every word
And don't think that I'm out of line for speaking out for what ismine
I'd like to see you do just fine, but look at what you wear
And the way you cut your hair
I can see by what you carry that you came from Barry Town
In the beginning we recall that the world was hurled
Barry Town people got tobe from another world
Leave me or I'll be just like the others you will meet
They won't act as kindly if they see you on the street
And don't you scream or make a shout, it's nothing you can doabout
It was where you came out, it's a special lack of grace
I can see it in your face
I can see by what you carry that you came from Barry Town
