If she's not here by now. Then I guess she's not coming. If she's not here by now. Then I guess I don't care. . Waiter, I won't waste your time anymore.
Well, the angels came to see me today. Said "We've taken your racehorse away". And I believe it was that bookmaker from . . .. I believe that he put one in a pail.
Strolling down on Mutton Street. The moon is peeping through. Old wives say, Young Man, you; d better. Watch your Ps and Qs. But life is good on Mutton Street.
If I ever get out of these shoes. And I shrug off a skin or two. I'll come looking in the wasted places. Beat-up, last ditch rendezvous. . If it had been some other place.
No easy way to say, it's over now. And I don't want to end it anyhow. We knew this time would come before too long. Love, how will I learn to stumble on?.
With you or without you, love,. I must be moving. Never meant to linger here so long. With you or without you,. though it breaks my heart. To hear the Sunset Song.
The money goes out, the bills come in. Round and round we go again. I come close but I never win. I'm stuck on the treadmill. . Another day of punching steel.
Old Man Morris got it bad last week. Fell for the widow from across the street. She clipped him in the ear, she told him what's what. But he couldn't keep his mind off her honey pot.
She walks the straight and narrow. She does what the Good Book says. She walks the straight and narrow. She got eyes in the back of her head, boys. Eyes in the back of her head.
So ben mi ch'a bon tempo,. Al so ma basta mo. . So ben ch'e favorito,. Ahimé no'l posso dir,. . O s'io potessi dire,. Chi va, chi sta, chi vien.. . La ti darà martello.
Sidney Wells, he drove the country North to South. On the walkie talkie, shooting off his mouth. The other lorry drivers thought he was a laugh. They didn't know the truth, they didn't know the half.
Sneaky Boy, Sneaky Boy. Thought you were one of us. One of our gang. Sneaky Boy, Sneaky Boy. The mole in the tunnel. The canary who sang. . While we sad chums.
Oh some girls hold the ace, the deuce, the trey. X-ray the deck to see what's coming. Mary Antoinette she smiled that way. Easy to smile when the luck is running.
Should I betray you to your spouse?. The wife who waits back at the house. She doesn't know that you're a louse. That's not the man she wed. . She doesn't know the deals you make.
In the dark, who can see his face?. in the dark, who can reach him?. he hides like a child. he hides like a child.. keeps his finger on the trigger. you know he can't stand the day.
I keep my nose clean, I keep my speech plain. I keep my promises, she twists the knife again. I shut my memory, I close my eyes and then. She takes another bite, she twists the knife again.
She charmed me from my cocoon. She eclipsed the sun and the moon. All of that summer my feet never walked on the earth. . She sang angels to rest. She sang angels to rest.
In the old cold embers of the year. When joy and comfort disappear. I search around to find her. I'm a hundred miles behind her. The open road whispered in her ear.
(Chorus). Here she comes and there she goes. Nothing on her fingers, nothing on her toes. Why she comes, nobody knows. Here comes Shaky Nancy. Don't be believing she melts in your hand.
Shane and Dixie they were two-bit crooks. They wanted to be famous like you read in books. Shane had the brain and Dxie had the looks for glory. As a bank robber Shane really hadn't got a clue.
