Found Out in Brooklyn

By Mark Williams

I stand ‘neath the lamppost
Wearing otiose blues
Staring at the skyline
From Flatbush Avenue
This corner is dirty
And dangerous too
When you ain’t got a quarter
And nothing to do


I’m down to my last dime, Out on the main line
Down and out in Brooklyn, downed out in Brooklyn
Found out in Brooklyn

Now these streets are wounded,
Slashed straight to the soul
By the blade of an unknown,
Bloodthirsty and cold
But I love this city,
It has a heart still
And I oft times stumble
In awe of its will.

I’m down to my last dime, Out on the main line
Down and out in Brooklyn, downed out in Brooklyn
Found out in Brooklyn

I wish I had a picture of when I was ten
Or more important, one of a friend
Someone I’d talk with when I was alone
Just like it is now that this street is my home

I’m down to my last dime, Out on the main line
Down and out in Brooklyn, downed out in Brooklyn
Found out in Brooklyn
