lyrics

I rolled down Woodward Ave in my Father's old car
He gave his soul to GM, after the war
Back when the spirit of Detroit was still intact
He'd always say we all get old, we all die
He'd always say we all get old, we all die

'57 Chevy Bel-air, his pride and joy
Fresh, frisky with vigor and vim is what the advertisement said
Spit polished, running clean, until the day he passed
He'd always say we all get old, we all die
He'd always say we all get old, we all die

Been decades since I drove through our old neighborhood
I can't belief that was our old house in all my memories
Fence knocked down, yard overgrown, the windows cracked
He'd always say we all get old, we all die
He'd always say we all get old, we all die

'63 took me to see the red wings with Gordie Howe
How we loved the way he played, proud to be from Detroit
How could we let the city die before our eyes?
He'd always say we all get old, we all die
He'd always say we all get old, we all die

I pray for a resurrection.
I pray for a resurrection. Rebirth.
