Old Downtown 歌词

	作曲 : Cantrell
	I went for a walk in my old downtown
	To the top of the hill and I turned around
	Train yard's not what it used to be
	The station's still standing by the factories
	Wendell's serving up the meat and three
	The tower lights read L & C
	Stood by the stone for the president
	Saw the bullet holes where the armies met
	Walked for a while with the suffragettes
	You know mama's still growing those roses yet
	Heard the echo of Bryan in the old court case
	And I thought as I walked about love and hate
	Passed a soldier boy with a gun of bronze
	Made a film of his life said he had a cause
	Didn't want to kill didn't want to die
	Felt the lightening flash took it as a sign
	That god is love and jesus saves
	And our soldier does participate
	Alvin came to New York with his fortune made
	And he walked for a mile in the ticker tape
	The mayor smiled while Alvin prayed
	"Sir I'd like to ride that subway train"
	Shimmers on film like a summer day
	Silver black and white, watch it fade away…
	I left this place at a tender age
	In the family book you know I turned the page
	Never could describe all the energy
	Wakes me up at night with the memory
	Mama don't you call me I'm good as gone
	You know your daughter loves you but she heard this song
	Church bells ringing in the old downtowns
	Ancient sadness tumbles down
	The heavy veil of tragedy
	Makes it hard to breathe, hard to see
	You can trace these scars along the ground
	When you're out for a walk in your old downtown
	I went for a walk in my old downtown…
