lyrics

a thousand years ago and a thousand before that
along the Black River people lived and worked and laughed
then in 1916 it dried up and went away
‘cause the Lake Washington Ship Canal was run to Salmon Bay

now there’s concrete and glass above an ancient glacial lake
and all people do now is complain
they say
there’s too much traffic man, it was different back in the day
but back in the day was before eminent domain

and it’s never coming back again

'cause the neighborhood has changed

everyday in Ballard brings a new proposed land use sign
they’re tearing down the houses to build town-homes that are all alike
so much wealth in the hands of so few means
nobody’s left who cares to take care like they used to

and they’re never coming back again

so I’m leaving…

life as we know it isn’t life as we knew it
the only thing steady is change
teach the history, teach the history
turn around, change
