Merrick Road and Linden Boulevard
Modest homes on tree lined streets
Once a haven for the blacks who made it
A negro bourgeosie
Times have changed as things so often do
If only the young ones knew
Most remember burning embers
Remnants of a wondrous place
It started with a crack. It's never coming back
Burnt down to the ground
The town of Jamaica
Though it breaks my heart to see it change
Only in my dreams will it stay the same
Merrick Road and Linden Boulevard
Far away from what I knew
Every face has been replaced
All the blacks have now gone blue
Paranoia and depression
All good lessons are hard to learn
I recall the final days
That laid to waste this wondrous
It started with a crack
It's never coming back
Torn down to the ground
The town of Jamaica
The town of Jamaica
The town of Jamaica
Only in my dreams
My hometown of Queens
Only in my dreams
My hometown of Queens
