Castres (French pronunciation: [kastʁ]; Castras in the Languedocian dialect of Occitan) is a commune, and arrondissement capital in the Tarn department and Midi-Pyrénées region in southern France. It lies in the former French province of Languedoc.
Castres is (after Toulouse, Tarbes and Albi) the fourth largest industrial centre of the predominantly rural Midi-Pyrénées région and the largest in that part of Languedoc lying between Toulouse and Montpellier.
Castres is noted for being the birthplace of the famous socialist leader Jean Jaurès and home to the important Goya Museum of Spanish painting.
In 1831, the population of Castres was 12,032, making it the largest town of the department of Tarn. One of the few industrial towns in the region of Albigeois, the population of the commune proper grew to 19,483 in 1901, and 34,126 by 1954 (44,161 inhabitants in the metropolitan area). However, with the decline of its industries, population growth diminished. Albi surpassed Castres as the most populous metropolitan area of Tarn. The population of Castres is now stagnating: after small growth in the 1970s and 1980s, it registered zero growth in the 1990s.

Genres: ,My girlfriend was
Babysitting down the street
So I bought some soda pop
And sandwich meat
She laid it on the table
And I took a seat
But I never got the
Chance to drink or eat
Chorus:
Cause one kiss led to another
And another and another
One kiss led to another
And another and another
The lights were low
When she turned on the radio
I could hear the music
Playing soft and low
I said, we better dance
Before I flip my lid
We both got up to dance
But we never did
(Chorus)
I thought the night was young
Until I saw the clock
The clock was striking midnight
It was quite a shock
I started for the door
But she grabbed my sleeve
She put her arms around me
Man, I couldn`t leave
(Chorus)
One kiss led to another
And another and another
And another and another
And another and another
