[00:02.63] Songs Title:just like tom thumb’s blues
[00:10.60] youre When lost in the rain in juarez
[00:14.86] its And easter time too
[00:20.51] And your gravity fails
[00:22.76] And negativity dont pull you through
[00:30.53] Dont put on any airs
[00:33.71] When youre down on rue morgue avenue
[00:39.89] They got some hungry women there
[00:42.70] And they really make a mess out of you
[00:55.18] Now if you see saint annie
[00:59.51] tell Please her thanks a lot
[01:05.05] I cannot move
[01:07.44] My fingers are all in a knot
[01:14.97] I dont have the strength
[01:18.46] To get up and take another shot
[01:24.83] And my best friend my doctor
[01:27.84] Wont even say what it is I have got
[01:40.58] Sweet melinda
[01:43.45] The peasants call her the goddess of gloom
[01:50.81] speaks She good english
[01:53.21] And she invites you up into her room
[01:59.70] And youre so kind
[02:01.65] And careful not to go to her too soon
[02:08.93] And then she takes your voice
[02:11.41] And leaves you howling at the moon .............
[02:29.23] Up on housing project hill
[02:33.23] Its either fortune or fame
[02:38.43] You can take one or the other
[02:42.24] Though neither of them
[02:43.15] Are to be what they claim
[02:49.01] If youre looking to get silly
[02:52.13] You better go back from where you came
[02:58.25] Because the cops dont need you
[03:01.15] And man they expect the same
[03:14.40] the Now authoritiesall
[03:15.08]
[03:17.88] just They stand around and boast
[03:23.46] Hew they blackmailed the sergeant at arms
[03:27.16] Into leaving his post
[03:32.78] And picking up my brother car who
[03:36.71] Just arrived here from the coast
[03:42.46] Who looked so fine at first
[03:45.51] But left looking just like a ghost well like they ghost i seed
[03:54.51]
[04:01.86] I when started out on burgundy
[04:06.72] But soon hit the harder stuff
[04:12.83] Everybody said theyd stand behind me
[04:16.27] When the game got rough
[04:21.38] ah But the joke was on me
[04:24.72] There was nobody even there to bluff
[04:30.62] Im going back to new york city
[04:33.87] I do believe Ive had enough
