Текст (слова) песни: Gordon Lightfoot - Just Like Tom Thumb`s Blues (sunday Concert Plus)
When you`re lost in the rain in Juarez and it`s Eastertime too, And your gravity fails and negativity don`t pull you through, Don`t put on any airs when you`re down on Rue Morgue Avenue, They got some hungry women there and they really make a mess outa you!
Sweet Melinda, the peasants call her the goddess of Doom, She speaks good English and she invites you up into her room. And you`re so kind, too careful not to go to her too soon, Then she steals your voice and leaves you howling at the moon!
Up on Housing Project Hill it`s either fortune or fame, You must pick one or the other though neither of them is what they claim, If you`re lookin` to get silly you`d better go back to from where you came, Because the cops don`t need you and man they expect the same!
I started out on burgundy but soon hit the harder stuff, Everybody said they`d stand behind me when the game got rough, But the joke was on me - there was nobody there to even call my bluff, I`m going back to New York City I do believe I`ve had enough, I`m going back to New York City I do believe I`ve had enough!
