Staten Island Blues
How's a man supposed to make it happen in this town?
There just aren't that many chances when you look around
What's a man supposed to do?
Ain't no cure for the Staten Island Blues
Hey man, why you coming round hassling me?
Ain't there someplace more important that you could be?
What's a man supposed to do?
Ain't no cure for the Staten Island Blues
Broken windows, broken lights on the stairs
Another black man down, if anybody cares.
What's a man supposed to do?
Ain't no cure for these New York blues
It's just another day in the world, I suppose
I hate to think that's just the way that it goes
What are we gonna do?
There ain't no cure for the other man's blues
There just aren't that many chances when you look around
What's a man supposed to do?
Ain't no cure for the Staten Island Blues
Hey man, why you coming round hassling me?
Ain't there someplace more important that you could be?
What's a man supposed to do?
Ain't no cure for the Staten Island Blues
Broken windows, broken lights on the stairs
Another black man down, if anybody cares.
What's a man supposed to do?
Ain't no cure for these New York blues
It's just another day in the world, I suppose
I hate to think that's just the way that it goes
What are we gonna do?
There ain't no cure for the other man's blues
