lyrics

MacDougal
by Alaska Gold Rush

Them saxophones blowing from Dixieland
Red light morning sounds like a big ol' band
My lonely days are over
Drums like churchbells rain on the rooftops
Theaters and city halls, tramways be-bop
My lonely days are gone

Before I turn lazy I still wanna hear about John Henry
Before the sun disappears I still wanna hear about ol' Stack-O-Lee

The banjo boy is looking for a place to shine
Shoes for a nickel, two songs for a dime
My lonely days are over
Coffeehouses closing now, poets step aside
They leave by the corner on the avenues get a ride
My lonely days are gone

Before I turn lazy I still wanna hear about John Henry
Before the sun disappears I still wanna hear about ol' Stack-O-Lee

The Mayor's still hangin' out on McDougal Street
Like a ghost of some kind I can hear him in my sleep
My lonely days are over
My lonely days are gone
