Jody Miller - Manhattan Kansas songtekst

Je score:


Manhattan Kansas ain't no place to have a baby

When you got no man to give it his last name

And her folks back in Manhattan didn't treat her like a lady

So she took her child and caught an evening train

She found a job in Denver washing dishes in a diner

At least it buys her baby milk to drink

He once told her she was pretty but the only ring it got her

Is the ring of grease that runs around the sink



Yes she laid beside him gentle cause he told her that he loved her

And he made her dance before the music played

But at least she's not a beggar she rather wash her dishes

It makes her feel as if her hands're clean



At night she stands there thinkin' bout the men back home in Kansas

And how men happen made up feel ashamed

She stares down through the soap suds reaches down and pulls the drain plug

And watches as Manhattan drains away

Yes she laid beside him gentle...

Manhattan Kansas ain't no place...
