the light in the ally caught hell for the places it spilled
the fire in the gutter burned back to the town it was built
poor Medgar Evers was buried from the bullet he caught
and Maria said nothing chalked it up to just "bones in a box"
the girls in the stairwell trade tricks and shove shit up their nose
the boys in the kitchen talk big about things they don't know
the piano man is playing them songs that he learned at a kid
the bible man is selling them truth that's been carefully edited
the ghost in the cantina drinks hard and sings songs that he learned
mostly old folkies and old Irish traditionals
and I sat their thinking Jesus Christ! Jesus Christ has come back
I counted my money
finished my drink
and left as quiet as I came
