lady liberty's blues - john gallagher jr. lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i can’t remember the last time i got myself into this much trouble
it’s been at the very least a couple of years
i walk around with her name always on the tip of my tongue
and her laughter ringing loud in my ears

i don’t know if i’ve ever been pointed this far downward
like a dog without a bone, without a clue
i’m no stranger to misreading but i got the strangest feeling
that she feels the same things too

[chorus]
she’s holding a torch like a guiding light
so high into the sky and the night
i don’t know if i should flee or if i should fight
but i’ll surely die if i don’t make her mine

and soon the chance will go up and a band will tune
and a young girl in blue steps in new dancing shoes
but i’m stuck in new york pulling a chord
singing lady liberty’s blues
lady liberty’s blues
lady liberty’s blues

[verse 2]
i guess i was about twenty*two
when i gave up on being jealous
but lately i’ve been feeling just like a kid
i’m sick of always knowing where she’s always going
where she’s been, what she’s doing
what she did

[chorus]
she’s holding a torch like a guiding light
so high into the sky and the night
i don’t know if i should flee or if i should fight
but i’ll surely die if i don’t make her mine

and soon the chance will go up and a band will tune
and a young girl in blue steps in new dancing shoes
but i’m stuck in new york pulling a chord
singing lady liberty’s blues

and it wouldn’t be so bad, it wouldn’t be so sad
if she’d stayed just out of my reach
and it wouldn’t hurt so bad, i wouldn’t yearn so bad
if she just stayed out of my dreams

sometimes you got something desperate
and the only way you can share it
is to step to the middle of the street and scream it aloud
but if i did that, i’d break every window
clean from here to fort greene park
and all night long, you’d hear those car alarms singing out
[chorus]
she’s holding a torch like a guiding light
so high into the sky and the night
i don’t know if i should flee or if i should fight
but i’ll surely die if i don’t make her mine

and soon the chance will go up and a band will tune
and a young girl in blue steps in new dancing shoes
but i’m stuck in new york pulling a chord
singing lady liberty’s blues

yes, i’m stuck in new york, pulling a chord
singing lady liberty’s blues
lady liberty’s blues
lady liberty’s blues
lady liberty’s blues, alright
