Roxbury (Roots ‘n’ Shoots)
Wake up on matters alone in Roxbury
Take the #1 bus to the subway
We move our music with
Our own strong hands
Flier the streets from Allston to Brighton
Somerville, Cambridge then back to Boston
We move our music with
Our own…
…hand grabbing on to hands
A basement and three bands
Beer's up stairs, if you fancy a smoke
Just ask the girl there, no need to get your head on now
We all make up the crowd
And I, I'm happy, yah, to just know you
Police moan about a noise complaint
No bother though there proper and straight
We wrap our cans and take
To the streets, our dirt bad lads
Come in from the cold
First The Model then McGreevey's
If you're low on dosh, don't stress
Tell me
Life's to hard
That's why we pack together here…
…have another beer
Brush the snow off with your fears
Fuck work and your shit Dad look around
He ain't even here…
…have another beer
Join us all in good cheer
Because we all smell that it will be another bad…
…year after year
We all hope things will get clear
Oi!
Hey!
Here have another beer
Brush the snow off with your fears
Take life light and when you stress you that we'll be…
…here have another beer
Join us all in good cheer
Because we all smell that it will be another bad…
…year after year
We all just hope things will get clear
Until then, yah, until then friend
Until the we will celebrate with beer
Until then, yah, until then friend
Until the we will celebrate with good cheer
