Queen Of The City Lyrics - Singles - Joshua James

well if i wrote it in your letter then it don't mean shit 

i am a liar, a dirty wire 

you could name my body but it'll make you sick 

you have a savior, it's your, your heart of anger 

but my dog ain't nothing, he ain't nothing like my lover 

ain't nothing like my lover at all 

he will sit upon my shoulder, let the dark day cover 

the dark day cover me up 

i've got two half dollars underneath my bed 

one for my baby, one for the lady 

on the sixth floor found me when my mind was dead 

buy what they tell you but i'm here to save you 

but my dog ain't nothing, he ain't nothing like my lover 

ain't nothing like my lover at all 

he will sit upon my shoulder, let the dark day cover 

the dark day cover me up 

i heard a lady singing 

"we're all bound together" 

i joined her side by saying 

"to dance beneath the heaven" 

christ, your mother's hanging on my bedroom door 

i'll bet she's pretty, queen of the city 

if you burn all sinners i could join your corp 

and sing "holy, holy" til my, my day of glory 

but my lord he ain't nothing, he ain't nothing like my lover 

ain't nothing like my lover at all 

he will sit upon my shoulder and let the dark day cover 

the dark day cover me up 

you can sit upon my shoulder, let the dark day cover 

the dark day cover me up
