Well, your railroad gate You know I just can't jump it Sometimes it gets so hard, you see I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet With all these promises you left for me But where are you tonight, sweet Marie? Well, I waited for you when I was half sick Yes, I waited for you when you hated me Well, I waited for you inside of the frozen traffic When you knew I had some other place to be Now, where are you tonight, sweet Marie? Well, anybody can be just like me, obviously But then, now again, not too many can be like you, fortunately Well, six white horses that you did promise Were fin'lly delivered down to the penitentiary But to live outside the law, you must be honest I know you always say that you agree Alright so where are you tonight, sweet Marie? Well, I don't know how it happened, but the Riverboat captain, he knows my fate But ev'rybody else, even yourself They're just gonna have to wait Well, I got the fever down in my pockets The Persian drunkard, he follows me Yes, I can take him to your house but I can't unlock it You see, you forgot to leave me with the key Oh, where are you tonight, sweet Marie? Well now, I been in jail when all my mail showed That a man can't give his address out to bad company And now I stand here lookin' at your yellow railroad In the ruins of your balcony Wond'ring where you are tonight, sweet Marie

Johnny's in the basement Mixing up the medicine I'm on the pavement Thinking about the government The man in the trench coat Badge out, laid off Says he's got a bad cough Wants to get it paid off Look out kid It's somethin' you did God knows when But you're doing it again You better duck down the alleyway Lookin' for a new friend The man in the coonskin cap In the big pen Wants eleven dollar bills But you only got ten Maggie comes fleet foot Face full of black soot Talkin' that the heat put Plants in the bed but The phone's tapped anyway Maggie says that many say They must bust in early may Orders from the d.a. Look out kid Don't matter what you did Walk on your tip toes Don't try "no doz" Better stay away from those That carry around a fire hose Keep a clean nose Watch the plain clothes You don't need a weather man To know which way the wind blows Get sick, get well Hang around a ink well Ring bell, hard to tell If anything is goin' to sell Try hard, get barred Get back, write braille Get jailed, jump bail Join the army, if you fail Look out kid You're gonna get hit But users, cheaters Six-time losers Hang around the theaters Girl by the whirlpool Lookin' for a new fool Don't follow leaders Watch the parkin' meters Ah get born, keep warm Short pants, romance, learn to dance Get dressed, get blessed Try to be a success Please her, please him, buy gifts Don't steal, don't lift Twenty years of schoolin' And they put you on the day shift Look out kid They keep it all hid Better jump down a manhole Light yourself a candle Don't wear sandals Try to avoid the scandals Don't wanna be a bum You better chew gum The pump don't work 'Cause the vandals took the handles

The guilty undertaker sighs The lonesome organ grinder cries The silver saxophones say I should refuse you The cracked bells and washed-out horns Blow in my face with scorn But it's not that easy I wasn't born to lose you I want you, I want you I want you so bad Honey, I want you The drunken politician leaps Upon the street where mothers weep And the saviors who are fast asleep, they wait for you And I wait for them to interrupt Me drinkin' from my broken cup And ask me if I would Open up the gate for you I want you, I want you I want you so bad Honey, I want you Well all my fathers, they've gone down True love they've been without it But all their daughters put me down 'Cause I don't think about it Well, as I return to the Queen of Spades And talk with my chambermaid She knows I'm not afraid to look at her And oh she is good to me And there's nothing that she doesn't see She knows where I'd like to be But it doesn't matter I want you, I want you Yes, I want you so bad Honey, I want you Your dancing child with his Chinese suit He spoke to me, I took his flute No, I wasn't very cute to him, was I? But I did it to him because he lied Because he took you for a ride Because time was on his side And because I... I want you, I want you I want you so bad Honey, I want you

Hay un suave murmullo En el silencio de una noche azul Son dos enamorados Que encantados, gozan del amor Y ríe la vida Y que dice así: aahh, aaah-ah-ah Aaah-ah-ah Y ríe la Luna Y que dice así: uhmm, uhmm Uhmm Uhm-mmm-uhmm Uhmm-mmm-uhmm Uhmm Uhm-mmm-uhmm
