Shawn Mullins - The Ballad Of Kathryn Johnston
Loading...
Uploaded by Hanswuerstle88 on May 21, 2008
Single aus dem neuen Album "Honeydew"
Old Ms. Johnston lived all alone
on the sorry side of town
Broke down cars and burglar bars
on the windows and doors
In case danger comes around
sitting in her yellow kitchen
listening to bad news on her A.M. radio
Used to be Louis Armstrong
then Martin Luther King
Where did everybody go?
Out the window where her garden was
It's not safe to go outside
Old Ms. Johnston in the eye of the storm
It was the safest place to hide
Yeah life's a gamble for the broken and the weak
dealing with the bangers and drugs
the winos weave and amble
and shuffle on down the street
steering clear of all the thugs
Now my city hangs her head in shame
Can't tell the truth from all the lies
everything changed forever
and everything stayed the same
On the night Ms. Johnston died

@scottymacIII Yes, "Nameless Faces" is the name of the song. It's from the Honeydew album (the same album that this song is from).

Either everybody here is too young to remember or you have horrible memories... This guy is the same guy that released "Lullaby" a long time ago (15 years?). He definitely seems to have grown a lot as an artist.

Great song, sad story, I had to google the name to get the references. May be my new favorite artist.

@lilibon - Amen, coming from a person who hasn't done drugs. What a waste of taxpayer money. What do I care if some stoner sits around giggling to Grandma's Boy. It's none of my business and especially not hte government's business.
