Jefferson St. Songtext
von Coretta Scott

Mikey tell me something, anything will do
Been driving around these tired streets for so long
Finding courage when you speak of what we′re about to

Some days it's slow motion films
Listen close as the blood loses pace in your veins
Sprint to escape
The taste of a life that was out to get you

Other days it′s a fire
Our hearts burn hot
Coals turn worries to ashes
And our voices are raised in one faithful protest


Never give up and we'll never give in
Keep on fighting and fighting
Never give up and we'll never give in
Keep on fighting and fighting

Felt like nothing ever mattered till you all came
And if I could do this all again I wouldn′t change a thing

Some nights I′d float so deep into this bottle
Feared the worst and maybe someday I wouldn't get out alive

I know that this is the worst that you have ever seen of me
Promising change, promising change in due time

Felt like nothing ever mattered till you all came
And if I could do this all again I wouldn′t change a thing

Write this down and remember

Felt like nothing ever mattered till you all came
And if I could do this all again I wouldn't change a thing
Felt like nothing ever mattered till you all came
