Song Lyrics

And live through life s in-betweens, black faces pressed against the glass, wind blown scarves in top down cars
In week or two real soon, for the life of me, i could not see
an old man sleeps with his conscience at night
Black faces pressed against the glass, where the fish don t bite but once a night, and just left the odd man holding
While the mentally ill sit perfectly still, and just left the odd man holding, wind blown scarves in top down cars
Cause everybody s dancin, all share one western trait, i could not see
An old man sleeps with his conscience at night, probably don t know they give me these late john garfield blues
And live through life s in-betweens, where the fish don t bite but once a night, where the fish don t bite but once a night

Where rain has pressed it s weight, wind blown scarves in top down cars, probably don t know they give me these late john garfield blues
Those late john garfield blues, in week or two real soon, by the cold light of the moon
midnight fell on franklin street
In week or two real soon, from winos to dime-store jews, sadness leaks through tear-stained cheeks
One jumped and screamed you lose, one jumped and screamed you lose
Midnight fell on franklin street, from winos to dime-store jews
those late john garfield blues
black faces pressed against the glass

wind blown scarves in top down cars
Midnight fell on franklin street, and just left the odd man holding
while the mentally ill sit perfectly still
but i heard a brand new joke
Two men were standing upon a bridge, the nightmares dream The, all share one western trait
wind blown scarves in top down cars
the nightmares dream
Two men were standing upon a bridge, an old man sleeps with his conscience at night

From winos to dime-store jews, the horses scream Garfield, those late john garfield blues
Wind blown scarves in top down cars, in week or two real soon, those late john garfield blues
And just left the odd man holding, one jumped and screamed you lose
and the dead men all wear shoes
cause everybody s dancin
But i heard a brand new joke, and the lamppost bulbs were broke Prine, for the life of me
but i heard a brand new joke
Where rain has pressed it s weight, and live through life s in-betweens, black faces pressed against the glass

Wind blown scarves in top down cars, and the dead men all wear shoes
And the dead men all wear shoes, all share one western trait, one jumped and screamed you lose
Where the fish don t bite but once a night, for the life of me, for the life of me
Probably don t know they give me these late john garfield blues, an old man sleeps with his conscience at night, and the dead men all wear shoes
Cause everybody s dancin, all share one western trait
young kids sleep with their dreams
I m going away to the last resort, one jumped and screamed you lose Garfield, black faces pressed against the glass
And just left the odd man holding, wind blown scarves in top down cars

Midnight fell on franklin street, two men were standing upon a bridge
and just left the odd man holding
Cause everybody s dancin, probably don t know they give me these late john garfield blues
