i was barely getting by - casino steel lyrics

Loading...

[verse]
well, i was walking down fourty*second street
on a hot and steamy night
sweat was pouring down my face
i used to black out for a light
little shoeshine boy said * h*llo, cas!
it seems you’ve run out of luck
and the wino on the corner mumbled
hey, mister, can you spare a buck?

[chorus]
but i was barely getting by
yes, i was barely getting by

[verse]
and this al pachino look*alike
struck a drum up my nose
he said * welcome to new york, punk
kinda scary, i suppose
and as i threw my hands up in the air
i kicked him in the b*lls
he fell face down in the gutter
i thought * how the big and mighty fall

[chorus]
’cause i was barely getting by
yes, i was barely getting by
[verse]
then there was one like a plum in the corner shop
came to my rescue
she’s been eyeing me for a couple of days, she said
can i spend the night with you?
as i took her back to my dingy flat
on third and twenty*nine
i was amazed how such a cr*ppy day
could turn out really fine!

[chorus]
’cause i was barely getting by
yes, i was barely getting by
