letra de division street - jon butcher

Loading...

a black man died on the lower east side
and the newspapers said he had a knife
when the police came, they said that he’s to blame, yeah
it’s a shame but we had to take his life

when the sun goes down on this twilight town
we could be in for nasty weather
can’t understand why they shot the wrong man
and couldn’t put the pieces back together

see the girls as they walk the beat
times are hard on division street
and mary sighs in the summer heat
gonna leave my blues on division street

(this is my home) down on division street
(stand on my own) down on division street
(this is my home) yeah, yeah, yeah

two gangs in a battle zone
shiny steel and cobblestone
and the fear smells like desolation
skin trade for a dollar bill
the johns and the junkies get their fill
while they choke on their salvation

now me, i just don’t care
what color flag you wear
’cause the blood still comes from the living
the street was paved in gold
has long ago been bought and sold
and the graveyard takes what it’s given

see the girls as they walk the beat
times are hard on division street
and mary sighs in the summer heat
i gonna leave my blues on division street

(this is my home) down on division street
(stand on my own) down on division street
(this is my home) yeah, yeah, yeah

i’m making a decision
gonna set my business straight
i gonna be your religion
gonna help me hold on, hold on, hold on
’til i can leave this place

yeah, yeah, yeah
this is my home
well, i hang on division street
yeah, yeah, yeah
this is my home
