Old Miss Johnston lived all alone[00:00:02]
On the sorry side of town[00:00:10]
Broke down cars and burglar bars[00:00:16]
On the windows and doors[00:00:19]
In case danger comes around[00:00:24]
Sittin' in her yellow kitchen[00:00:30]
Listenin' to bad news on a Radiant radio[00:00:34]
It used to be Louis Armstrong[00:00:45]
Then Martin Luther King[00:00:49]
Where did everybody go?[00:00:54]
Out the window where her garden was[00:01:01]
It's not safe to go outside[00:01:09]
Old Miss Johnston in the eye of the storm[00:01:16]
It was the safest place to hide[00:01:24]
And life's a gamble for the broken and the weak[00:01:46]
Dealin' with the bangers and the drugs[00:01:54]
The whinos weave and amble[00:02:00]
And shuffle on down the street[00:02:04]
Steerin' clear of all the thugs[00:02:09]
And now my city hangs her head in shame[00:02:16]
You can't tell the truth from all the lies[00:02:24]
Everything changed forever and everything stayed the same[00:02:31]
On the night Miss Johnston died[00:02:39]
