Letra de Positively 34th Street
My head was pounding, I was looking like hell
She sat down, said, "Here, honey," and handed me a pill
Put twenty on the table, two bourbon and two beer
She sat down, said, "Here, honey," and handed me a pill
Put twenty on the table, two bourbon and two beer
We started talking and my headache disappeared
Bets and decks were business, little dice for fun
Hit the town and drink away any money that we won
Didn't share a bed, but we shared the same dreams
Though left them all behind the day we left New Orleans
She never said a word, still I could hear her from afar
Crying out to me to lift the curse keeping us apart
The way it is ain't the way it supposed to be
Why you and her and not you and me
Years go by, tears go by, too much to explain
Living on my own again and sporting a touch of grey
Time is but a wind, blowing from whereabouts unknown
Us towards each other, always away from home
But if I don't hurry up, if I don't make this bet
I might miss a moment Lord knows I'll regret
So I hit send
And this is what she said
"I'm a walking, talking, drinking, smoking, gambling kinda girl
I been wined, dined, led on, lied to many times before
I don't bet on boys, they just love you, leave you blue
But make it to my doorstep, I might roll the dice on you
Now before you pack that suitcase and set off for the south
There is something weighing on me I want you to think about
We both love greasy diners, both love dark and dingy bars
But this here is a clean house, better have a clean heart"
At the crack of dawn, I was gone, gonna be ten hours time
Burning down the blacktop, trying to make it there tonight
Called to say I'm on my way, but nobody picked up
And I'm not sure if that means something or just bad luck
But if I don’t hurry up, if I don’t make this bet
I might miss a moment Lord knows I'll regret
So I hit send
And this is what she said
"I'm a walking, talking, drinking, smoking, gambling kinda girl
I been wined, dined, led on, lied to many times before
I don't bet on boys, they just love you, leave you blue
But make it to my doorstep, I might roll the dice on you"
I walked up to her doorstep, and I knocked upon that door
She answered, and those eyes afire, they cut me to the core
If the worst should happen, well, at least I got this song
But she motioned me inside, said, "What took you so long?"
Bets and decks were business, little dice for fun
Hit the town and drink away any money that we won
Didn't share a bed, but we shared the same dreams
Though left them all behind the day we left New Orleans
She never said a word, still I could hear her from afar
Crying out to me to lift the curse keeping us apart
The way it is ain't the way it supposed to be
Why you and her and not you and me
Years go by, tears go by, too much to explain
Living on my own again and sporting a touch of grey
Time is but a wind, blowing from whereabouts unknown
Us towards each other, always away from home
But if I don't hurry up, if I don't make this bet
I might miss a moment Lord knows I'll regret
So I hit send
And this is what she said
"I'm a walking, talking, drinking, smoking, gambling kinda girl
I been wined, dined, led on, lied to many times before
I don't bet on boys, they just love you, leave you blue
