Текст песни:

[Verse 1: Jon Fratelli]
Pull me up a chair and keep your money, there's no guarantees
Won’t you please forgive me but you know cold blooded women make me sneeze
And I’ll kick you out the door if for just one minute you lie
And they’ll come crashing through the wall and leave you crawling til’ the minute you die
Pour yourself a drink or three and maybe we’ll think clearer for a while
You may be an embarrassment but I love the way your clothes are never in style
Livings much too easy, dying would be some kind of bore
Well, you swear that you’re original but I know I’ve seen those jealous eyes before

[Chorus]
So steal the watch from off my wrist
Oh, and shake me by the hand
We could disappear for days
And they wouldn’t understand
Gypsy blood will get you far
And will not miss you when you go
[Verse 2]
Tear another hole in my brown shoes and we can all sleep for a while
Well I told you once before, I love your braces and your hesitant smile
But please don’t get me wrong, it's only right that you can stamp on my heart
Well I’ve seen you and your friends some place, you know I just can’t tell you apart

[Refrain]
And though they'll hunt you like a dog they won’t take you alive
'Cause you made them piles of money stacked up, twenty stories high
And the boys in every bar, they will not miss you when you go

[Chorus]
So steal the watch from off my wrist
Oh, and shake me by the hand
We could disappear for days, and they wouldn’t understand
Gypsy blood will get you far, though it’s far away from me
Look me up when you get home and maybe then we'll see

[Outro]
Though they’ll hunt you like a dog, they won’t take you alive
'Cause you made them piles of money
Stacked up twenty stories high
And the boys from every bar
Well, they’ll miss you when you’re gone
You can tell a heady tale
And we'll all keep screaming on
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la
La-la, la-la

  • Well you’ve been scratching around in the basement Looking for somewhere to hide Making your own entertainment Trying hard to salvage some pride Well you’re the last of the original orphans And baby you’re a wonderful friend I love the way you say I’m forgiven And that I don’t have to pretend I’m no squeeze Well I’m no Monday’s child Tell me please Half a made up story Of syncopated glory Of when you and the kid ran wild And I know your kind You’ve got a dirty mind You think that half the world’s gone blind Well don’t ya And I can’t get on While you should be just good as gone When everything you say sounds wrong Oh yes it does Oh baby why don’t ya Well you say you only want to amuse me Just flash me that toothless smile You tie me up in words that confuse me And terrorize me all the while Aw you’re so twee And you’re so very dim Every time we meet You tell me of the time When you wish that you was mine And now it hurts you when you try to begin And I know your kind You’ve got a filthy mind You think that half the world’s gone blind Well don’t ya And I can’t get on While you should be just good as gone When everything you say sounds wrong Oh yes it does Oh baby why don’t ya Oh baby why don’t ya Oh I know your kind You’ve got a filthy mind You think that half the world’s gone blind Don’t ya And I can’t get on While you should be just good as gone When everything you say sounds wrong Oh yes it does Oh baby why don’t ya Oh baby why don’t ya Oh baby why don’t ya Oh baby why don’t ya
  • Well every night I burn Just like a heretic And take my turn Among the lunatics Follow me, follow me Follow me down Follow me, follow me Follow me down And the stars are blind I’m unpredictable There’s no real sign But I’m incurable Follow me, follow me Follow me down Follow me, follow me Follow me down Baby won’t you make a believer out of me I’ve been in the dark for so long that I can’t see Tell me all your beautiful lies one last time Dress me in your favorite disguise, I’ve been blind Well every night I fade Into the chaos of this world I made When I was in between Follow me, follow me Follow me down Follow me, follow me Follow me down Baby won’t you make a believer out of me I’ve been in the dark for so long that I can’t see Tell me all your beautiful lies one last time Dress me in your favorite disguise, I’ve been blind Follow me, follow me Follow me down Follow me, follow me Follow me down Baby won’t you make a believer out of me I’ve been in the dark for so long that I can’t see Tell me all your beautiful lies one last time Dress me in your favorite disguise, I’ve been blind I’ve been blind I’ve been blind I’ve been blind I’ve been blind I’ve been blind
  • She never came from Miami FLA She never found herself like other girls they say She had the kind of face you’d never ever miss, invisible in bliss She couldn’t understand why nobody felt like this She walked a mile in a faithless pair of heels Just to imagine how it looks and how it feels To be the kind of girl that everyone, that everyone adored High upon the scoreband Smiling through her teeth Wild as thunder underneath High, high in the sky out of reach of you and I Witnessing the days go by don’t it make a poor girl cry? Oh Lord it’s a sin all this pain we’re living in Don’t it make your poor head spin Down the road and back again La la la la down the road and back again La la la la He never told himself ambition wasn’t real He taught his eyes to think and his brain how to feel He got his wires crossed and couldn’t raise a smile Made sense once in a while Counting down the days till his clothes came back in style He couldn’t see how anything was right or wrong He knew the words and tune but didn’t know the song He spoke a language that he couldn’t barely speak An out of date technique Though he was just blood and bone he always felt unique! High, high in the sky out of reach of you and I Witnessing the days go by don’t it make a poor girl cry? Oh Lord it’s a sin all this pain we’re living in Don’t it make your poor head spin Down the road and back again La la la la down the road and back again La la la la down the road and back again La la la la down the road and back again La la la la down the road and back again Each and every last one in denial Counting every minute till it seems worthwhile Dragging behind them every last heartache Singing «Jesus Forgive me» for their own sake In a fever Nothing better When your souls at stake… High, high in the sky out of reach of you and I Witnessing the days go by don’t it make a poor girl cry? Oh Lord it’s a sin all this pain we’re living in Don’t it make your poor head spin Down the road and back again La la la la down the road and back again La la la la down the road and back again La la la la down the road and back again La la la la down the road and back again
  • I was lost like a love sick ghost Maybe for the very first time You were there where the truth gives way Not for the very last time In a daze from your seasick ways Nobody else could thrill me In your gaze, I was paralyzed Love in the very first degree In this showdown pain was sweet I took all I could take, shook all I could shake And your moves got strange in my defeat I was nothing less than torn, crying out to be reborn Come back, baby, you can make me happy Maybe you can prove me wrong? You’re the only one who could ever save me Maybe you could prove me wrong? I’ve been living in the dark down here too long I was born once again, my love In the midst of the rainstorm I would kiss your feet and praise your name If you sign my release form In this showdown, pain was sweet I took all I could take, shook all I could shake And your moves got strange in my defeat I was nothing less than torn, crying out to be reborn Come back, baby, you can make me happy Maybe you can prove me wrong? You’re the only one who could ever save me Maybe you could prove me wrong? I’ve been living in the dark down here too long And if you should lose your way I’ll be here waiting every day Wild, wild horses couldn’t keep me From your front door, oh, I swear Come back, baby, you can make me happy Maybe you can prove me wrong? You’re the only one who could ever save me Maybe you could prove me wrong? Come back, baby, you can make me happy Maybe you can prove me wrong? You’re the only one who could ever save me Maybe you could prove me wrong? I’ve been living in the dark down here Keeping my intentions clear Out of luck in the dark down here too long
  • You wear your mask, I’ll wear mine They don’t come cheap, but they fit just fine You can be her and I can be him We can both sink when the rest don’t swim Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long We can pretend that our fates are entwined The beautiful lies the beautiful kind Everybody knows that the sun still sets And everybody gives and everybody gets Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long I can be the one that you just can’t shake Till you swear that your eyes go blind We can disappear till the sun burns a hole In the life that we left behind And I just won’t stop till my heart gives way And you and I are a long lost myth There’s nothing very much that I wouldn’t do To be the last of the men that you romanced with The last of the men that you romanced with Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long You wear your mask I’ll wear mine They don’t come cheap but they fit just fine We can pretend that our fates are entwined The beautiful lies the beautiful kind
