wherefore art thou, elvis? - the gaslight anthem lyrics

Loading...

i cut my teeth on the stone of a teenage romance
i was the salt of the earth, i was hard, and the last of the independents
and the breath from my chest i was blowing kerosene
my lips and fingertips were stone, i wore my heart on my jeans
i sang the blues like the dogs left too long in the street
i still sing the blues with the dogs

and i got half a mind to let it all burn up in this fire
that’s been burning through my veins since i first learned to cry
i’d watch this whole night come down and never miss her again
i never felt right and never fit in
walking in my own skin

now i got scars like the number of stars, my mind’s full of vipers
i got the dust of the desert in my bones, coming through the amplifiers
between the minor chord fall and the fourth and the fifth
it’s a broken hallelujah and a pain in my fist
i wash my hands like the man with the blood on his teeth
over and over without relief

and i got nothing for you darling but a story to tell
about the rain on the pavement and the sound as it fell
i’d watch this whole night come down and never miss her again
i never felt right and never fit in

walking in my old man shoes, with my scientist heart
i got a fever and a beaker and a shot in the dark
i need a cadillac ride, i need a soft summer night
say a prayer for my soul, señorita

because i’ve been dying out here in the cold and the snow
i’ve got a picture of you, mama, to remind me of home
on the hood of a dodge on a sat-rday night
say a prayer for my soul, señorita
