Michael Beatty: Lyrics & Listen
My Street
(Michael Beatty)
Picking up papers
Picking up Rose
We laugh at the devil
In the wolfman’s clothes
He’s late
Got a date
Down on the corner
Ten row dime
Hole in the boiler
But the coffee tastes
Just fine
Cuban wine
On my street
The cards stack up
Until they all fall down
It’s like a game
It’s all a trick
It’s in the eyes
Passing by
On my street
Hell’s Kitchen Hello
Shot in the night
Blew out the window
And the bathroom light
I know...
So it goes
Tongue on the cherry
Blood on the street
Walkin the dog
To a killer beat
We swoon
Big bad moon
On my street
The cards stack up
Until they all fall down
It’s like a game
It’s all a trick
It’s in the eyes
Passing by
On my street
