The Gaslight Anthem - The Spirit of Jazz[00:00:02]
The cool is dead baby[00:00:25]
Go on and sleep[00:00:26]
Rest your weary head and love a better me[00:00:28]
And in the morning[00:00:30]
We'll start over again[00:00:32]
That's how they do it up on the screen[00:00:33]
So me and my baby[00:00:36]
We would dance all night[00:00:38]
But I don't know the steps[00:00:39]
In my baby's time[00:00:41]
To do it like they do it[00:00:42]
For the girls uptown[00:00:44]
I hear they light them up like the blues[00:00:45]
So I'm waiting so I'm waiting[00:00:48]
And she's waiting and she's waiting[00:00:51]
For us to remember[00:00:53]
Was I good to you the wife of my youth[00:00:57]
No other soul could love you[00:00:59]
Like my rotten bones do[00:01:02]
So I will wait on the edges in between[00:01:04]
These New York streets[00:01:06]
Where you and I would meet[00:01:08]
For twenty nine years[00:01:20]
We loved that line[00:01:22]
And I would take it easy[00:01:23]
If I had your mind[00:01:25]
But I'm a cannonball to a house on fire[00:01:26]
And you're slow like Motown soul[00:01:29]
So what man wouldn't love her[00:01:32]
With that long black hair[00:01:33]
If I cut you up[00:01:35]
Maybe I came to bear[00:01:36]
To bandage your wounds[00:01:38]
With the salt on my tongue[00:01:39]
And I'm the only one not here[00:01:41]
So I'm waiting so I'm waiting[00:01:43]
And she's waiting and she's waiting[00:01:46]
For us to remember[00:01:49]
So was I good to you the wife of my youth[00:01:52]
No other soul could love you[00:01:55]
Like my rotten bones do[00:01:57]
So I will wait on the edges in between[00:01:58]
These New York streets[00:02:01]
Where you and I would meet[00:02:03]
And only I can heal your wounds[00:02:06]
Only I can heal your wounds[00:02:12]
When you can't go on[00:02:19]
When you can't go on[00:02:21]
When you can't go on[00:02:24]
When you know hold on[00:02:27]
So was I good to you the wife of my youth[00:02:37]
No other sould could love you like my[00:02:40]
So was I good to you the wife of my youth[00:02:42]
No other soul could love you[00:02:45]
Like my rotten bones do[00:02:46]
So I will wait on the edges in between[00:02:48]
And I will wait on the edges in between[00:02:51]
And I will wait on the edges in between[00:02:54]
These New York streets[00:02:57]
On all these New York streets[00:02:59]
Where you and I would meet[00:03:02]
