Charlyn, Angel Of Kensington - Jason Collett[00:00:00]
From St Christopher's house[00:00:06]
Into the streets you set out[00:00:09]
With the dispossessed and the broken down[00:00:13]
You looked around and saw the need[00:00:19]
Dug in your heels rolled up your sleeves[00:00:25]
You were no stranger to the refugee[00:00:31]
And you wouldn't let the bully boys get you down[00:00:37]
These are your streets from the projects to the sums of Chinatown[00:00:44]
From Denison square to the synagogue steps[00:00:55]
The shopkeepers and merchants all families of immigrants[00:01:02]
Charlyn Charlyn Angel of Kensington[00:01:08]
Laundry hanging in the ally yards[00:01:21]
Cats sunning on the hoods of parked cars[00:01:27]
Children messing 'round in the vacant lots[00:01:33]
Fish market woman laughin' out loud[00:01:39]
Old Portuguese men hanging 'round[00:01:45]
In the ancient smoke of a local bar[00:01:51]
You feeding birds right out of your hand[00:01:57]
On the sidewalk cafe while the street preacher quotes old testament[00:02:04]
Charlyn Charlyn Angel of Kensington[00:02:10]
Down in Alexandra Town[00:02:41]
I can almost hear the old steel drums ringing out[00:02:47]
Courage take courage[00:02:53]
For every lonely soul that you lifted up[00:02:59]
Pushing out the walls of this neighbourhood[00:03:05]
I guess that's why they call you the angel of Kensington[00:03:11]
Charlyn Charlyn Angel of Kensington[00:03:18]
This is your family this is your family[00:03:36]
This is your family this is your family[00:03:42]
This is your family this is your family[00:03:48]
This is your family this is your family[00:03:54]
