Elm City Ballads
Ceschi

4 AM

Driving through the streets of New Haven again

Baby faced crack corner kids

Working grave yard shifts

With the diner waitresses

Everybody trying to break bread

I'm every lung that's breathing in this filthy city waste

I'm trick turning street walker

Mary full of grace

Undocumented worker wage slave

I'm needle pierced vein

I am black rose on Grandmother's grave

We'll find our way the old men said in AA


They told us faith in God would take the pain away

But God is nowhere to be found in this place

We're only half awake

Waiting to be served slop and corn cake by inmates


Love me city, till I'm gray

Elm city love me safe

Love me city, till I'm gray

Love me till I am erased
