Hackers diner was quite a place
A real mom and pop affaire
She did the cooking
he did the boasting
And all the drivers got a pretty good meal
Walking around as the buildings come down
what was there before
Sugar shacks and working man bars
Lost forever to broken dreams and dried up hearts
The Skylark lounge was jumping every night
A lot of bands started out there
The music was smoking
The beer was flowing
The dancers showed off
And got it on out back
Walking around as the buildings come down
what was there before
Sugar shacks and working man bars
Lost forever to broken dreams and dried up hearts
Earth movers came and
Plowed it all away
Nothing left but dust and mud
The bluesmen took off
Down the line
No more waitresses
Just take away food
Walking around as the buildings come down
what was there before
Sugar shacks and working man bars
Lost forever to broken dreams and dried up hearts
Walking around as the buildings come down
What was there before
Shanty towns and working man bars
Lost forever /to high rise bistros, / chain stores/gym clubs/tanning salons /
Broken dreams and dried up hearts
