The Late John Garfield Blues - Sara Watkins[00:00:00]

Black faces pressed against the glass[00:00:06]

Where rain has pressed it's weight[00:00:12]

Wind blown scarves in top down cars[00:00:18]

All share one western trait[00:00:24]

Sadness leaks through tear stained cheeks[00:00:30]

From winos to dime store Jews[00:00:36]

Probably don't know they give me[00:00:43]

These late john Garfield blues[00:00:48]

Midnight fell on Franklin street[00:00:55]

And the lamplight bulbs were broke[00:01:01]

For the life of me I could not see[00:01:07]

But I heard a brand new joke[00:01:13]

Two men were standing upon a bridge[00:01:19]

One jumped and screamed you lose[00:01:26]

And just left the odd man holding[00:01:32]

Those late john Garfield blues[00:01:38]

Old men sleep with their conscience at night[00:01:48]

Young kids sleep with their dreams[00:01:54]

While the mentally ill sit perfectly still[00:01:59]

And live through life's in betweens[00:02:06]

I'm going away to the last resort[00:03:04]

In a week or two real soon[00:03:11]

Where the fish don't bite but once a night[00:03:17]

By the cold light of the moon[00:03:23]

Horses scream nightmares dream[00:03:29]

And the dead men all wear shoes[00:03:35]

'Cause everybody's dancin'[00:03:41]

To those late john Garfield blues[00:03:48]
