We learned to skate here back in the 80s
And I can take you to the spot near the vacant lot
Where they buried my favorite baby
Now we been kicked out and scolded berated
And just plain told*ed certain people didn't like our company
Well they're gonna have a riot if they try to keep us quiet
Cause it's our town too and well do we please
Some lady didn't like the way we danced,
So she bought the building & doubled the rent
& the club that she couldn't buy burned down to the floor
Well I ain't gotta worry because lady when you die I won't be sad no more
Some people got together & they built a place they could call their own,
& people came running from miles around saying yer doing it all wrong,
Making up the rules as they went along
