Downside of Town Lyrics by Willy DeVille

Crow Jane Alley

0

I left a note on your pillow
With a hand print on your window pane
Calling you just to hear your voice
I knew then I didn't have a choice
Here I am, baby, on the downside of town
Stuck here such a long long time
Hanging on the telephone line
Please, answer now so I can say
That I will never ever hurt you again
Here I am, baby, on the downside of town
Packed my things and I took my guns
Crawled out the window and I started to run
Why did I leave ? Did you not want me around ?
She hurts me still since I cut her down, since I cut her down
Here I am, baby, on the downside of town
Then I heard that voice that I love so
Why I left I just don't know
Don't hang up on me, give me one more chance
I need to tell you that I love you again
Here I am, baby, on the downside of town
On the downside of town
Here I am, baby, on the downside of town
On the downside of town
