Bài hát Atlantic City Báo Lỗi

Well my soul checked out missing as I sat listening

To the hours and minutes tickin' away

Yeah just sittin' around waitin' for my life to begin

While it was all just slippin' away

I'm tired of waitin' for tomorrow to come

Or that train to come roarin' 'round the bend

I got a new suit of clothes a pretty red rose

And a woman I can call my friend


These are better days baby

Yeah there's better days shining through

These are better days baby

Better days with a girl like you


Well I took a piss at fortune's sweet kiss

It's like eatin' caviar and dirt

It's sad funny ending to find yourself pretending

A rich man in a poor man's shirt

Now my ass was draggin' when from a passin' gypsy wagon

Your heart like a diamond shone

Tonight I'm layin' in your arms carvin' lucky charms

Out of these hard luck bones





Well they blew up the chicken man in Philly last night now they blew up his house too

Down on the boardwalk they're gettin' ready for a fight gonna see what them racket boys can do


Now there's trouble busin' in from outta state and the D.A. can't get no relief

Gonna be a rumble out on the promenade and the gamblin' commissions hangin' on by the skin of its teeth


Everything dies baby that's a fact

But maybe everything that dies someday comes back

Put your makeup on fix your hair up pretty and meet me tonight in Atlantic City


Well I got a job and tried to put my money away

But I got debts that no honest man can pay

So I drew what I had from the Central Trust

And I bought us two tickets on that Coast City bus


Everything dies baby that's a fact

But maybe everything that dies someday comes back

Put your makeup on fix your hair up pretty and meet me tonight in Atlantic City


Now our luck may have died and our love may be cold but with you forever I'll stay

We're goin' out where the sands turnin' to gold so put on your stockin's cause the nights gettin' cold and maybe everything dies

That's a fact but maybe everything that dies someday comes back


Now I been lookin' 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

Well I'm tired of comin' out on the losin' end

So honey last night I met this guy and I'm gonna do a little favor for him

Well I guess everything dies baby that's a fact

But maybe everything that dies someday comes back

Put your makeup on fix your hair up pretty and meet me tonight in Atlantic City
