Well my friends are gone, my hair is grey |
| [00:10.859] |
And I ache in all the places where I used to play |
| [00:15.280] |
And I'm crazy for love, but I'm not coming on |
| [00:25.141] |
I'm just paying my rent every day in the tower of song |
| [00:32.404] |
|
| [00:35.439] |
I said to Hank Williams, "how lonely does it get?" |
| [00:41.132] |
Hank Williams hasn't answered yet |
| [00:46.257] |
But I hear him coughing all night long |
| [00:54.437] |
A one hundred floors above me in the, in the tower of song |
| [01:01.869] |
|
| [01:04.038] |
Come on |
| [01:06.233] |
|
| [01:33.540] |
I was born like this, I had no choice |
| [01:38.524] |
I was born with the gift of a golden voice |
| [01:43.837] |
And twenty seven angels from the great beyond |
| [01:52.880] |
They tied me to this table right here in the tower of song |
| [02:02.022] |
|
| [02:02.614] |
So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll |
| [02:08.098] |
I'm very sorry baby doesn't look like me at all |
| [02:12.582] |
And I'm standing by the window where the light is strong |
| [02:22.099] |
They don't let a woman kill you, not in the tower of song |
| [02:28.875] |
|
| [02:31.833] |
Come on |
| [02:33.689] |
|
| [03:01.331] |
Now you can say that I've grown bitter, but of this you may be sure |
| [03:06.530] |
The rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor |
| [03:11.140] |
And there's a mighty judgement coming, but I may be wrong |
| [03:20.552] |
You see I hear these funny voices in the tower of song |
| [03:27.601] |
|
| [03:30.463] |
Now I bid you farewell I don't know when I'll be back |
| [03:35.918] |
They're moving us tomorrow to that tower down the track |
| [03:40.640] |
But you'll be hearing from me baby long after I'm gone |
| [03:49.884] |
I'll be speaking to you sweetly from my window in the tower of song |
| [03:58.402] |
|
| [03:59.837] |
Come on |
