Teresa Brown
Was hangin around
Wrong part of town
When she went down
She was a goner
‘fore she hit the ground

Teresa Brown
Had blood on her face
Had mud on her hands
Such a big disgrace
She was a goner
Before she hit the ground

Everything’s changing in the new world
It’ll be ok
Life’s re-arranging in the new world
It’s another day

Teresa Brown had a tough old time
Feedin all her kids, trying to make a dime
She was a goner then she went downtown

Teresa Brown she knew my Mom
One time they went down to Chinatown
She was a goner
‘fore she hit the ground

Everything’s changing in the new world
It’ll be ok
Life’s re-arranging in the new world
It’s another day

Don’t be afraid==it’ll be ok
Don’t be afraid—it’s another day
Don’t be afraid—it’ll be ok
Don’t be afraid—it’s another day

Teresa Brown
Never got the joke
Never read the note
Never heard the sound
She was a goner
‘fore she hit the ground

Teresa Brown
Was hangin around
Wrong part of town
When she went down
She was a goner
Now she wears the crown

Everything’s changing in the new world
It’ll be ok
Life’s re-arranging in the new world
It’s another day
