lyrics

There’s many a man who would stand up and say/The past is no quide for what we’re doing today
But the roots of the past are thick and they are deep/And the roots are exposed on Magazine Street

It’s many a year since I walked through the town/Past the old shotgun houses and workshops around
Where factories and stores and warehouses meet/Where commerce converged on Magazine Street
Humid breeze/ Missing piece

By the look in her eye and the way that she stood /I could she was a wild one and up to no good
Then her hand touched my arm and she smiled so sweet/On a hot afternoon on Magazine Street
Dark place/ Her face

A summer of heat a summer of night/The wind pushed us toward the flickering lights
Of the old French Quarter where the river runs deep /When you come to the end of Magazine Street
Lovers/ No others

Now the lumberyard’s gone and the factories closed/The barges stopped coming to drop off their loads
And the old railway tracks are covered with weeds/Dragged into the past on Magazine Street
The rules of the game are never quite fair/You can work all your life and still never get there
Bury your dreams, live with defeat/Until the rules change again on Magazine Street
Changes/ Strangers
