JAKE's GYM

We work all day, boots of mud
We survived the nor'easter, we stood the flood
What can I say that hasn't been said
The old gym is shut down, our arms still pumped of leadĀ 
This towns changing fast, million dollar condos, six dollar gas
Ā 
Jake's gym, oh Jake's gym
There's not much I can do for you now, my faithful friend
Jake's gym, oh Jake's gym
We'reĀ here now 'cause the politics wouldn't bend

There's a fight on the boulevard tonight
Someone's wrong, the other thinks he right
One guy knows someone who can get the job done
The other has deeper pockets, a bigger gun
This townsĀ changin fast, peer village, greener grass

Jake's gym, oh Jake's gymĀ 
There's not much I can do for you now, my furry friend
Jake's gym, oh Jake's gym
We'reĀ here now 'cause there'sĀ a means to every end
