Gates of the West - The Clash[00:00:00]
I would love to be the lucky one on chill[00:00:11]
Avenue[00:00:14]
Who could keep your heart warm when ice has turned it blue[00:00:16]
But with the beggin' sleeping losers as they turn in for the night[00:00:19]
I'm looking back for home and I can see the lights[00:00:21]
I should be jumpin' shoutin' that I made it all this way[00:00:25]
From Camden town station to 44th and 8th[00:00:28]
Not many make it this far and many say we're great[00:00:31]
But just like them we walk on an' we can't escape our fate[00:00:34]
Can't you hear the sighing[00:00:37]
Eastside Jimmy and Southside Sue[00:00:44]
Both say they needed something new[00:00:47]
So I'm standing at the gates of the west[00:00:50]
I burn money at the lights of the sign[00:00:53]
The city casts a shadow of the perfect crime[00:00:55]
I'm standing at the gates of the east[00:01:02]
I take my pulse and the pulse of my friend[00:01:05]
The city casts a shadow will I see you again [00:01:08]
The immigrants an' remnants of all the glory years[00:01:15]
Are clustered around the bar again for another round of beers[00:01:18]
Little Richard's in the kitchen playing spoons and plates[00:01:21]
He's telling the waitress he's great[00:01:24]
Ah say i know somewhere back'n'forth in time[00:01:27]
Out on the dustbowls deep in the roulette mine[00:01:31]
Or in a ghetto cellar only yesterday[00:01:34]
There's a move into the future for the USA [00:01:37]
I hear them crying[00:01:43]
Eastside Jimmy and Southside Sue[00:01:47]
Both said they needed something new[00:01:50]
So I'm standing at the Gates of the West[00:01:53]
I burn money at the light of the sign[00:01:55]
The city casts a shadow of the perfect crime[00:01:59]
I'm standing at the Gates of the East[00:02:06]
I take my pulse and the pulse of my friend[00:02:08]
The city casts a shadow will I see you again [00:02:11]
Standing at the gates of the west[00:02:32]
In the shadow again[00:02:34]
I'm standing at the gates of the west[00:02:44]
In the shadow again[00:02:50]
I'm standing at the gates of the West[00:02:56]
In the shadow again[00:03:02]
In the shadow again[00:03:12]
