On Market Street

(McGowan)

On Market Street where I was born
On a cold and clear December morn
There were six other children in a house well worn
But nothing remains today

On Market Street on a summer's night
With the town there bathed in the bright moonlight
There was so much wrong yet so much right
But nothing remains today

Where the time goes only God knows
Maybe the wind blows it all away

On Market Street there were honest men
And everyone knew everyone way back then
And we've all lost something but I don't know when
Cause nothing remains today

On Market Street there's wooden cross
To remind us all of what's been lost
And it stands there covered in dust and moss
That's all that remains today

Where the time goes only God knows
Maybe the wind blows it all away
