	Lyrics City Square Standing in the city square The buildings of brownstone and cobble surround me Orange burnt sun sinks behind I imagine the shadows that once passed by Windows upon windows, stacked upward, climbing the blue Endless dog barking, fire escapes Cabs blow impatient horns, as I give coins to a begger looking at each window Pane... What thoughts reside behind? Watching the tops of raindrops Turn to bottoms on the cement and gather in song: Do do do do do-do Three windows from the sidewalk Two from the pavement World passes mocking Spitting out respect only when in need Funny they don't know Funny they don't know When Momma done told them years ago Your momma told you so many years ago *repeat Verse 1 Three windows from the sidewalk Kindred danse on headstone stoops Hear their calls Witness their joy Mother wasn't home, just the girls and boys Funny they don't know Funny they don't know When daddy done told them years ago Your pappa told you so many years ago (D.R.Mabelis)
