Lyrics The Classic Crime

The Classic Crime

Vagabonds

I can't get enough

Of livin' in the city

I get off the bus

At Dexter and Denny

The sun's comin' up

Over the lake to my east

And I feel the love

In the rhythm of the music of the street, yeah

And no one is gonna take that away from me

So I pick up a Real Change paper

As I walk on down the street

Yeah, because

Vagabonds and troubadours

I built this city on punk rock cores

And I for one cannot ignore the facts, yeah

So we will make music

'Til no one refuses

We will take our airwaves back

Yeah, come on

In the jet city of love

Northwest in the evergreen state

People can't get enough

Of living in the darkness and the rain

But when the sun comes out

The streets are filled with songs

And people playing it loud

So the whole world can sing along, yeah

And the cops go screaming by on the 99

There's a man with a smile and his guitar on

And he's holdin' a sign

And it says

Vagabonds and troubadours

I built this city on punk rock cores

And I for one cannot ignore the facts, yeah

So we will make music

'Til no one refuses

We will take our airwaves back

Yeah, come on
