    Story Behind the Song
    This is a live version. Its about the people in our town after a bad winter. Kris only got the lyrics the day before and left a verse out. It was easy to write i got the rythm after trying to use my more subtle voicing in the chords.

    Lyrics
    chorus:
    Shanty towns flok suffer in the rain,
    they know not from where it came.
    Roofs of scraps and meals of pity are all they have in this shanty city.
    Roofs of scraps and meals of pity are all they have in this shanty city.

    It's the worst winter in 20 years.
    all the home are gone, no-one knows where they'll sleep tonight.

    Chorus

    Constable Peters eases community fears.
    you can all sleep in the town hall tonight.
    how will we rebuild it all?

    Chorus
