Alter Boy And The Thief - Joan Baez[00:00:00]

At night in the safety of shadows and numbers[00:00:15]

Seeking some turf on which nothing encumbers[00:00:20]

The buying and selling of casual looks[00:00:24]

Stuff that gets printed in x-rated books[00:00:28]

Your mother might have tried to understand[00:00:31]

When you were hardly your daddy's little man[00:00:35]

And you gave up saluting the chief[00:00:39]

To find yourself some relief[00:00:43]

Finely plucked eyebrows and skin of satin[00:00:53]

Smiling seductive and endlessly Latin[00:00:57]

Olympic body on dancing feet[00:01:01]

Perfume thickening the air like heat[00:01:05]

A transient star of gay bar fame[00:01:09]

You quit your job and changed your name[00:01:13]

And you're nearly beyond belief[00:01:16]

As you hunt down a little relief[00:01:20]

The seven foot black with the emerald ring[00:01:30]

Broke up a fight without saying a thing[00:01:34]

As the cops cruised by wanting one more chance[00:01:38]

To send Jimmy Bald win back over to France[00:01:42]

And a trucker with kids and a wife[00:01:46]

Prefers to spend half of his life[00:01:49]

In early Bohemian motif[00:01:53]

Playing pool and getting relief[00:01:57]

My favorite couple was looking so fine[00:02:23]

Dancing in rhythm and laughing in rhyme[00:02:27]

In the light of the jukebox all yellow and blue[00:02:31]

Holding each other as young lovers do[00:02:35]

To me they will always remain[00:02:39]

Unshamed untamed and unblamed[00:02:42]

The altar boy and the thief[00:02:46]

Grabbing themselves some relief[00:02:50]

The altar boy and the thief[00:02:56]

Catching a little relief[00:03:01]
