Testo Atlantic City - The Hold Steady

Testo della canzone Atlantic City (The Hold Steady), tratta dall'album War Child Present Heroes

Well, they blew up the chicken man in Philly last night
And blew up his house too
Down on the boardwalk, they're getting ready for a fight
Gonna see what these racket boys can do
Trouble bussin' in from outta state
And the D.A. can't get no relief
Gonna be a rumble out on the promenade
And the gambling commission's hanging on by the skin of his teeth
Everything dies, that's a fact
Maybe everything that dies, someday comes back
Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty
And meet me tonight in Atlantic City
I got a job and I tried to put some money away
But I got debts that no honest man can pay
So I took what I had from the Central Trust
And I got us two tickets on that Coast City bus
Everything dies, that's a fact
Maybe everything that dies, someday comes back
Put your makeup on, make your hair look pretty
And meet me tonight in Atlantic City
Now our luck may have died, our love has grown cold
But with you forever I'll stay
We're going out tonight where the sands turn to gold
So put on your stockings, girl, the night's getting cold
Everything dies, that's a fact
Maybe everything that dies, someday comes back
I've been looking for a job, but it's hard to find
Down here it's just winners and losers and
Don't get caught on the wrong side of that line
Tired of coming out on the losing end
Last night I met this guy, I'm gonna do a favor for him
Last night I met this guy, I'm gonna do a favor for him
Last night I met this guy, I'm gonna do a favor for him
Last night I met this guy
Last night I met this guy
Last night I met this guy, I'm gonna do a favor for him
Everything dies, that's a fact
Maybe everything that dies, someday comes back
Everything dies, that's a fact
Maybe everything that dies, someday comes back
Everything dies, that's a fact
Maybe everything that dies, someday comes back
Everything dies, that's a fact
Maybe everything that dies, someday comes back
Everything dies, that's a fact
Maybe everything that dies, someday comes back
Everything dies, that's a fact
Maybe everything that dies, someday comes back
