Savin Hill - Street Dogs
Written by:Guidotti/McColgan
Savin hill my starting point
Down the beach with a few beers
Didn't know what life had in for us
Starting out at st margaret's
Up there on that lonely hill
I got my start in 1970
Moved on down to motley school
Down to st willie's from there
The catholic golden rule got hooks in me
Sister robad ms coughlin the teachers and their authority
I put my fist up to them at every turn
Savin hill it was my start
Beginning of a lifetime
I still remember those days clearly
Cannot forget my roots
Or when it really started
Savin hill down by the beach
Grades one to eight were nuts
Hijinx pranks and stunts pulled out
Me and my cousin were the terrible two
Danny joey bobby saxon and victoria
Many a long necked bottle cracked down there
Savin hill it was my start
From the courts back to the park
The weekend time seemed so damn free
If you had my back I took yours
Our obligatory creed
Savin hill down by the beach
Do you remember the tennis courts
The bungalo or harpo's bench
Do you remember jumping that bridge
The risks we took and our chances
Go
The later years brought on alcohol nights
Coupled with petty arguements and barroom fights
We never broke apart and we stood our ground
If a cohort was lost he was found
If things got hot dorchester stayed cool
No other townies came towards us fools
Savin hill down by the beach it's these memories I'll go preach
Savin hill down by the beach it's these memories I'll go preach
Savin hill is where it all began
