Songtext zu 'The Diamond Church Street Choir' von The Gaslight Anthem

And now the lights go low on the avenue
And the cars pass by in the rain
And the university boys and the girls fill the bars
While I'm just waiting on the light to change
And the steam heat pours from the bodies on the floor
Down in the basement where the jackknives play
For the hub city girls and the ribbons and their curls
Who know the meaning of stayin' out late
They know the meaning of stayin' out very, very late

Singing who does it better than we do
Them sopranos in andy diamond's choir
And wo wo wo wo nobody knows
I've been crazy for so long without you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

And I found my beat down out in the universe
Though I never forget where I'm from
I mighta moved away from home and slept out there on my own
A million miles away in a storm
But the beat never leaves and the temple's a relief
Until my aching bones rambling all over
And if I'm gone for too long
I can always hold on long
So don't you never forget what I told you
Don't you never forget what I told you

Everyone singin'
Who does it better than we do
Them sopranos in andy diamond's choir
And wo wo wo wo nobody knows
I've been crazy for so long without you

And just, baby, who sings the rhythm and the blues so sad and so slow like I do, like I do
And oh ain't it just like you want to?
And ohh ain't it just like you always wanted too
Yes, yes, yes, yes, every night waitin' so long without you

And baby, who sings it better than we do
Them sopranos in andy diamond's choir
And wo wo wo wo nobody knows ive been crazy crazy, crazy, crazy (crazy for so long without you)
Yes, baby, who sings the rhythm and the blues so sad, so slow like I do and just like you want to
