It's crazy to think I used to be in the dark
My history was all kind of vague
I guess it took the Black Bottom Saints
To learn about the joy and the pain
So why don't you get yourself a drink at the bar
Raise a glass and let's celebrate
The Glory of the Black Bottom Saints
I hope that you'll remember their Names!
In Black Camelot
The music was hot
And everyone knew everyone's name
There's simply no denying that the factory-folk caused
A revolution in their own special way
It's crazy to think I used to be in the dark
My history was all kind of vague
I guess it took the Black Bottom Saints
To learn about the joy & the pain
So why don't you get yourself a drink at the bar
Raise a glass and let's celebrate
The Glory of the Black Bottom Saints
I hope that you remember their names!
In Black Detroit
The girls and the boys
Were dancing with their own kind of flare
And Ziggy lit the fire with one helluva show
The stars came out for a colossal affair
It's crazy to think I used to be in the dark
My history was all kind of vague
I guess it took the black bottom Saints
To learn about the joy & the pain
So why don't you get yourself a drink at the bar
Raise a glass and let's celebrate
The Glory of the Black Bottom Saints
Oh The stories of the Black Bottom Saints
Oh The Glory of the Black Bottom Saints
I hope that you'll remember their names!
I said I hope that you'll remember
Their Names!
