Jumpin' at the Golden Gate Larry Dunn ‘01
Verse
Have you heard about that cat in San Francisco
Who decided to jump the gun
From high upon the Golden Gate he cashed it in
Before his race was run
He waved goodbye to Alcatraz
And went down with setting sun
Chorus
Everybody sing jump…from way up high
Now jump…people passing by
Said jump…kiss it all goodbye
And jump from the city side
He lost the whole ballgame, struck out at home plate
But he sure could jump at the Golden Gate
Verse
Stuck in traffic, runnin’ late
Wonderin’ why all these cars won’t move
I tuned in the radio, the DJ said
You’d better find an alternate route
Got this jumper on the rail at the Golden Gate
Jammin’ up your afternoon commute
Chorus
Verse
Big city, bright lights, on the make day and night
Took all his friends down for a ride
Then when he got busted, couldn’t be trusted
Didn’t have a prayer on the inside
With a future in doubt, said I’d better check out
See you on the other side
Chorus
