Lyrics:
She's waiting for me when I get home from work
But things just ain't the same
She turns out the light and cries in the dark
Won't answer when I call her name
(chorus)
On the stairs I smoke a cigarette alone
The Mexican kids are shooting fireworks below
Hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July
Hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July
She gives me her cheek when I want her lips
And I don't have the strength to go
On the lost side of town in a dark apartment
We gave up trying so long ago
Whatever happened, I apologize
So dry your tears and baby, walk outside
It's the Fourth of July
YES ! More than just a sequence of notes and vocals -- -- DAVE ALVIN !!!
Absolutely awesome drummer, WOW!!!
My go to song on this day every year, Dave Alvin is one of the greatest songwriters ever.

There’s a unique version of him performing that with The Blasters backing him. Great, as always. The Blasters and the ALVIN BROTHERS are national treasures. Their music represents the forgotten and soon to be forgotten America.🇺🇸

Was this the private show after the acoustic show the night before? I was trying to figure out how I missed this! Thank you!
It was indeed. It was a show for a private party. Dave brought out the whole band for the public show.
Who’s on keyboards?
