Una città per cantare

歌詞

O'Keefe Highways and dance halls A good song takes you far You write about the moon You dream about the stars Blues in old motel rooms Girls in Daddies' cars You sing about the nights You laugh about the scars Coffee in the morning Cocaine afternoons you talk about the weather you grin about the room Phone calls long distance Tell you how you've been You'll forget about the losses You'll exaggerate the wins And when you stop to let'em know you got it down It's just another town along the road The ladies come to see you If your name still rings a bell They'll get you down to nothin' And they'll say they knew you well You tell'em you'll remember But they know it's just a game And along the road their faces All begin to look the same It isn't for the money And it's only for a while You stalk about the rooms You roll away the miles Gamblers in the neon Clinging to guitars You're right about the moon But you're wrong about the stars And when you stop to let'em know you got it down It's just another town along the road
