Come on baby, won't you show me what you got, yeah
I want your salvation, whoa!
Come on baby, won't you show me what you got, yeah
I want your salvation, whoa!
There's a neighborhood called Blackhawk where all the rich people hide
I was down on my luck working for the Salvation Army
The shelter is where I reside
Everyday we drive into Blackhawk and we pick up the offerings
Microwave, refrigerators for the suffering
Come on baby, won't you show me what you got, yeah
I want your salvation, whoa!
Come on baby, won't you show me what you got, yeah
I want your salvation, whoa!
I can't believe these people live like kings
Hidden estates and diamond rings
I'm a rat out on a mission
I'm in your front yard under suspicion
Come on baby, won't you show me what you got, yeah
I want your salvation, whoa!
Come on baby, won't you show me what you got, yeah
I want your salvation, whoa!

this is a song about how tim spent alot of his time working in the salavation army after he was found with a 40% alcahol level in his blood and put into a "salvation" army clinic where he was for a amount of time after operation ivy broke up, its truly a great song!
this song reminds me of being a little kid....i must have been about 5 running around singning this song with my brother who would have been around 13 at the time....i was a little badass punk rocker...this song, Roots Radicals, and Time Bomb being me way way back
yeah...I live 10 minutes from Blackhawk and I'm pretty sure I've never encountered a more pathetic neighborhood in my life. These people are the epitome of degenerate. 50 plus % of the teenagers are 'ghetto'. 50% of the moms are more plastic than skin. It is the haven of mid-life crisises. The people simply believe that if they live there, nothing unfortunate could ever possibly happen to them.-which is what makes it fun to piss them off. Good for them for being rich. Screw them for thinking the key to happines is greed. Go RANCID
I remember reading an interview with Tim many years ago and he said (at the time) this is the only song he ever wrote out of anger
this song is great, just realizing how much money rich people spend on their drinks or hotels and shit, while others are dying each day. I am not one of those idiots that blames rich people for being rich, i just thing that if you have thta much money, share it with someone who doesnt.
this is probably my favorite Rancid song...it's about getting all the rich peoples hand-me-downs....
"come one baby, show me what you got, yeah" not here, kpizzle should die
True don't blame the rich for being rich.Blame them for wasting on useless peices of shit and being greedy.DOnt blame them for being rich.Blame them for their greed.
I WANT YOUR SALVATION!! wOOOOOOOH. tHIS SONG ROX ITS SOOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE IT!!! i LOVE mATT AS WELL. dONT WORRY. nUN OF USE NO WHO HE IS. bUT i DO
I live in the Easy Bay and the people who live in blackhawk are so fucking annoying. They really do live like kings and all the kids think they're ghetto.
