Franklin Ave

Last night we traveled from bar to bar
Franklin Avenue
where everyone is nice
no one cares about your race
We're all friends
the bartenders know your face
give you hugs
and free drinks
Franklin Avenue
where a stranger asks if you're cheating on him
and you tell him
"Yes, I'm sorry you had to find out this way"
and another says,
"If you run your fingers through your hair like that one more time,
I'm going to lose my mind"
Franklin Avenue
where everyone is your friend
and they treat you real nice
and hug you goodbye
and tell you,
"Until next time"
and "by the way, let me tell you my name"
