David Johansen - Lonely Tenement lyrics
She was crying since a long long time ago She had the child he'll never know She knew love until it got a little slow And why he left she'll never know And in a lonely tenement ??? She had no way to pay her rent And all her money had been spent She couldn't get a compliment ??? In a lonely tenament A lonely tenament In a lonely union hall He's waiting for some work to call Waiting for his raise to fall Got his ass against the wall He's giving them his all and all They're expecting for him to crawl In a lonely hall A lonely tenement Well there were times when his work came easily When he could stand up and feel free He even dreamed of raising a family Something that now will never be Well in a bar in her neighborhood She remembers when it was good Or was it that she understood All her crummy neighborhood She'd buy a round if she only could ??? drink it if she only would In a bar in her neighborhood A lonely neighborhood A loney tenement Looks at her life and wonders where did it all go She'll never know |
