jackie greene - talkin' midtown women lyrics

Loading...

well monday morning had me down
by tuesday evening i? d come around
friday found me singing on the stage
well i don? t mind working late
it keeps the beans on my plate
if it weren? t for singing, i might be in the cage

now i got me a bas-m-nt with a view
and i can sleep till 1/2 past two
some folks call me lazy some call me brave
but it don? t matter anyway
we do our own things day to day
i just ain? t no one else? s slave

and all the while the world turns
with petty talk and lame concerns
and arguments over what you should believe
and all the while the world burns
it? s clear as day, but n-body learns
cause no one wants a cure for this disease

now i see women everywhere
on the street and on the stair
sometimes it? s so hard to keep my cool
platinum blondes who? ve gone brunette
and some who ain? t decided yet
lord sometimes they make me feel just like a fool!

i know girls with strange tattoos
and i know girls who like their booze
and i know girls who don? t do nothing but cry
i know girls with plastic faces
their picture? s on their pillowcases
i know girls who live to love and lie

and everytime i turn around
another grave is in the ground
they? re selling all kinds of cr-p on my tv
and everytime i turn around
someone says they think the? ve found
the answer to some old forgotten mystery

now outside the apartment gates
there? s vanity on license plates
and a dozen differnt kinds of coffee shops
i go walking down that avenue
same as them, same as you
difference is my feet don? t ever stop!

now i know married girls who cheat
they say their lives are incomplete
and i know girls who say they? ve been betrayed
i know some girls who speak of fate
and they don? t ever hesitate
they say:? life is made of moments, being made?

but come midnight it? s all the same
it melts into a picture frame
and suddenly everythigns so clear
the night is cool, the moon is tame
and there? s nothing but some crazy dame
it? s always these d-mn women that keep me here

wintertimes, my favorite time
i get to see old friends of mine
everybody? s running from the cold
but i know someday it? ll all be gone
when youth decides to p-ss me on
and time decides to turn my body old

but i? ll always love that cheap perfume
messin? with my afternoons
and all those pretty women p-ssing by
we all sing the same old tune
like the locals in the loud saloon
just doing what were doing till we die
