16th Avenue-Lacy J Dalton[00:00:01]
From the corners of the country[00:00:07]
From the cities and the farms[00:00:10]
With years and years of living[00:00:14]
Tucked up underneath their arms[00:00:17]
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[00:00:27]
On 16th Avenue[00:00:30]
With a million dollar spirit[00:00:35]
And an old flattop guitar[00:00:39]
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[00:00:49]
About a friend of a friend they knew[00:00:52]
Who owns you know a studio[00:00:55]
On 16th Avenue[00:00:58]
Now some were born to money[00:01:04]
They’ve never had to say “Survive”[00:01:07]
And others swing a 9 pound hammer[00:01:10]
Just to stay alive[00:01:14]
There’s cowboys drunks and Christians[00:01:17]
Mostly white and black and blue[00:01:20]
They’ve all dialed the phone collect to home[00:01:23]
From 16th Avenue[00:01:27]
Ah 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[00:01:45]
Rolled off of someone’s tongue[00:01:48]
And 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[00:01:58]
On 16th Avenue[00:02:01]
It looked so uneventful[00:02:07]
So quiet and discreet[00:02:10]
But a lot of lives where changed[00:02:13]
Down on that little one way street[00:02:16]
‘Cause they walk away from everything[00:02:20]
Just to see a dream come true[00:02:23]
So God bless the boys who make the noise[00:02:26]
On 16th Avenue[00:02:30]
From the corners of the country[00:02:41]
From the cities and the farms[00:02:45]
With years and years of living[00:02:48]
Tucked up underneath their arms[00:02:51]
