lirik lagu keep left - olvera street
all the boys downtown say she’s got a…
she’s got an attitude
she’s got an attitude
she don’t keep down when she really ought to
she don’t pay attention to the status quo
she’s just a primadonna
she owns a restaurant
she’s not a working girl
she’s not a working girl
she got a little too much leisure time and she doesn’t speak for the community
but vivian wakes up everyday just to see her culture slipping away
who’s gonna want a street that old in a town that’s full of new?
she can feel the ground
the ground is sinking fast to the bottom half of the hour glass
but she keeps on climbing ’cause there’s nothing еlse she can do
and vivian’s got a calm cool way about her
shе keeps her head held high through every little twist and turn
vivian’s got a pretty brown~eyed daughter
she doesn’t speak spanish, and she doesn’t really wanna learn…
doesn’t really wanna learn
vivian walks past a couple derelicts sleeping in the shade of history
she doesn’t lose a step
she doesn’t look back
somebody shows her another story
a story in a local magazine
it makes her angry
it makes her angry
“jesus on a soapdish, what the h~ll is that”
tell me why we’re always working and they try to make us look so cheap
tell me why it’s just the shallow ones who always cut so deep
tell me why i’m always fighting and i’m always trying to look so tough
if no one out there gives a d~mn then i’m never gonna be enough
vivian looks with wonder at her weary hands
she says tomorrow’s just another day
but the street is getting quiet and she understands
tijuana’s three short hours away…
only three short hours away
vivian’s daughter got a new boyfriend
she’s got a fast car with a stereo
she doesn’t try when she’s in school
she’s gonna squeak on by on her way to the top
she got an attitude
it doesn’t matter ’cause she’s pretty like a picture
like a picture
her life’s all planned out
there’s no denying
it’s written in stone like a marker for a grave
gonna fly now
gotta get away
before the sun melts her gossamer wings and she falls back down to the tiny little street that her mother’s still trying to save
and vivian’s got a calm cool way about her…
