Telegraph road 1977 & 2024


Lady, with your dogs
Living in a doorway on Telegraph Road
What have you seen?
What happened to you?
What led you this way?

You find yourself in Berkeley
The Golden Gate Bridge extends before your feet
Well, it's a complicated place
These hills, those millions who walk on through
But nowhere for you

And I guess that San Francisco's a lonely city
And you lost your life somewhere
Maybe on Broadway, maybe some other street?
And I guess that San Francisco's a lonely city
And you lost your life somewhere
Maybe on Broadway, maybe some other street?

And maybe it's not this city that brought you to this day
Could have been Chicago, perhaps L.A.
What sights? What loves? What pains?
I wonder, lady, what's your history?
Could have been some roses along the way or strange mysteries
That led you to this doorway
Oh, with only your dogs for company

And I guess that San Francisco's a lonely city
And you lost your life somewhere
Maybe on Broadway, maybe some other street?
And I guess that San Francisco's a lonely city
And you lost your life somewhere
Maybe on Broadway, maybe some other street?

So, decades flew right on by
Fast forward, now I am
Singing my father's words about you
Luck brought me through your town, it's built on big ideas and power
But the streets are still lined with those who call 'em "home" and maybe always will
I wonder too your name, your face, your fate
Forever in my mind sat with your dogs up there on Telegraph Road

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
