    Trying to figure out who sang this country song
    A song I was thinking about that I can't remember who sang it

    I believe the name was boomtown or living in boomtown

    Believe it was late 80s or 90

    Can't remember much of the lyrics other than we're living in boomtown

    Male singer, lower voice

    I think he may have had a band with the name bullets or something like that, silver bullets maybe? Not bob seger and the silver bullets boomtown blues. This was only a country song. Not Toby Keith.

    I remember there being a video for this song as well.

    It is not david and david

    It is a COUNTRY song 88-91 most likely in 1990

    I think I got it! Mark Knopfler- Boomtown?
    Released 1993


    I know he is not "country", but this song is on CMT.com

    OK, this is a long shot but, maybe "Kids of the Baby Boom" by The Bellamy Brothers?

    Like that song too, but that's not it.
    I've tried everything and looked everywhere, pretty certain I'm not losing my mind, I'm positive there was a country song named boomtown, pretty sure it was in 1990.
    I remember at the time I had 2 favorite songs that were being played at the time, one was American boy by eddie rabbit, the other was this song I'm looking for, boomtown. I'm sure it wasn't a local gig song because I remember the video, course I can't remember any details in it.
