16Th Avenue - Lacy J Dalton[00:00:00]
Written by:Thom Schuyler[00:00:03]
From the corners of the country[00:00:07]
From the cities and the farms[00:00:10]
With years and years of living[00:00:13]
Tucked up underneath their arms[00:00:16]
They walk away from everything[00:00:21]
Just to see a dream come true[00:00:23]
So god bless the boys who make the noise[00:00:26]
On 16th avenue[00:00:30]
With a million dollar spirit[00:00:35]
And an old flattop guitar[00:00:38]
They drive to town with all they own[00:00:42]
In a hundred dollar car[00:00:45]
'Cause one time someone told them[00:00:48]
About a friend of a friend they knew[00:00:51]
Who owns you know a studio[00:00:54]
On 16th avenue[00:00:58]
Now some were born to money[00:01:03]
They've never had to say survive[00:01:06]
And others swing a 9 pound hammer[00:01:10]
Just to stay alive[00:01:13]
There's cowboys drunks and christians[00:01:16]
Mostly white and black and blue[00:01:19]
They've all dialed the phone collect to home[00:01:23]
From 16th avenue[00:01:26]
But then one night in some empty room[00:01:38]
Where no curtains ever hung[00:01:41]
Like a miracle some golden words[00:01:44]
Rolled off someone's tongue[00:01:48]
After years of being nothing[00:01:51]
They're all looking right at you[00:01:54]
And for a while they'll go in style[00:01:57]
On 16th avenue[00:02:01]
It looked so uneventful[00:02:06]
So quiet and discreet[00:02:09]
But a lot of lives where[00:02:12]
Changed down on that little one way street[00:02:14]
'Cause they walk away from everything[00:02:19]
Just to see a dream come true[00:02:22]
So god bless the boys who make the noise[00:02:25]
On 16th avenue[00:02:29]
From the corners of the country[00:02:41]
From the cities and the farms[00:02:44]
With years and years of living[00:02:47]
Tucked up underneath their arms[00:02:50]
Walk away from everything[00:02:55]
Just to sing for mean you[00:02:57]
So god bless the boys[00:03:00]
