Well the West | |
End now The | |
West End then | |
Went by the other day | |
Just to see my friend | |
His house was dark | |
His socks were thin | |
I told him let’s get out the | |
West End For my whole life | |
I’ve lived down in the | |
West End But it sure has changed here | |
Since I was a kid | |
It’s worse now | |
Look what progress did | |
Someone lined their pockets | |
I don’t know who that is | |
Well my old man slaved | |
Down here in the | |
West End He thought the future was bright | |
Way back then | |
But it beat him down | |
Till he had nothing to give | |
It broke his back | |
Took away his will to live | |
Now me I don’t think much of the | |
West End Ain’t gonna end up | |
Like the old man did ‘ | |
Cause I got dreams and they’re bigger than this | |
As far as | |
I’m concerned | |
You can keep the | |
West End Well | |
I guess down here | |
In the West | |
End Broken promises | |
Now and then | |
It’s not even fair | |
To think that they would ‘ | |
Cause the | |
West End now | |
Ain’t no damn good | |
Out there somewhere | |
You know there’s gotta be a place | |
Where a man can live | |
With a smile on his face | |
And every day something new begins | |
But it ain’t down here | |
At the West | |
End Some day down here | |
In the West | |
End No one will remember | |
How the whole place began |
Well the West | |
End now The | |
West End then | |
Went by the other day | |
Just to see my friend | |
His house was dark | |
His socks were thin | |
I told him let' s get out the | |
West End For my whole life | |
I' ve lived down in the | |
West End But it sure has changed here | |
Since I was a kid | |
It' s worse now | |
Look what progress did | |
