[00:02.52]"'Oh I come from Pittsburgh to study astrology'
[00:06.12]She said as she stepped on my instep
[00:10.32]'I could show you New York with a walk between Fourth Street and Nine'
[00:18.60]Then out of her coat taking seven harmonicas
[00:22.53]She sat down to play on a doorstep
[00:26.22]Saying 'Come back to my place I will show you the stars and the signs'
[00:31.68]So I followed her into the black lands
[00:38.07]Where the window frames peel and flake
[00:42.24]And the old Jewish face behind the lace
[00:44.97]Even now trying to get to see what's cooking
[00:49.56]Just John the Baptist in the park getting laid thinking there's no-one looking
[00:57.99]And its eighty degrees and I'm down on my knees in Brooklyn
[01:09.93]Her house was a dusty collection of rusty
[01:13.62]Confusion with landings and tunnels
[01:18.03]And leaning bookcases and spaces and faces and things
[01:25.32]Where twenty-five Puerto Ricans, Manhattan Mohicans
[01:29.61]And Jewish-Italian Pawnbrokers
[01:32.64]Lead their theatrical lives in their rooms in the wings
[01:42.09]While outside in the black lands
[01:45.27]The violent day runs wild
[01:49.20]And the black and white minstrels run through the crazy
[01:51.36]Alleys while the cops go booking
[01:56.94]And ruthless toothless agents sneak around and there's no-one looking
[02:01.29]And it's eighty degrees and I'm down on my knees in Brooklyn
[02:09.60]And oh, I'm back in the city again
[02:21.33]You can tell by the smell of the hamburger stand in the rain
[02:29.67]She spoke of astrology while muttering apologies
[02:33.66]For coffee that tasted of hot dogs
[02:37.89]I said 'That's OK, mine was cold anyway, and just grand'
[02:42.27]Then she lay on the bed while the radio fed
[02:49.17]Us with records and adverts for cat food
[02:53.40]And I looked at her, holding my thoughts in the palm of my hand
[03:01.41]And outside in the black lands
[03:05.97]The evening came and went
[03:08.97]And the bums in the street begging money for one last drink
[03:11.43]Are hanging round the liquor stores trying to get a foot in
[03:16.77]And the girl from Pittsburgh and I made love on a mattress with the new moon looking
[03:24.30]And in the cool evening breeze I was down on my knees in Brooklyn
[03:29.25]"
