The Hold Steady

The Hold Steady - The Sweet Part Of The City songtekst

Je score:



Back when we were living up on Hennepin

She kept threatening to turn us in

At night she mostly liked us, we used to pass around the thermos

Some nights she was gorgeous



We were living it

We delivered it

We didn't feel a thing

We were living in...



The sweet part of the city

The part with the bars and restaurants

We used to meet underneath the marquees, we used to nod off in the matinees

She always claimed that she was from Tennessee, and now it seems to me



Like distance doesn't equal rate and time no more

It's like gravity doesn't apply

No, everything sparkles and appears like we're on wheels

It was dark but I guess that's the deal



St. Theresa showed up wearing see-thru, it was standard issue

We went out to get some more wine

But it's a long haul to the corner store from the center of the universe

When you can't get your car off the curb



We were living it

We delivered it

We didn't feel a thing

We were in heaven in...



The sweet part of the city

The part with the bars and restaurants

And so we shot ourselves out into outer space, it was tough to place the aftertaste

It was stark but it was spacious



It's a long way from Cedar Riverside to Cedar Sinai

Three times St. Paul to Cheyenne

And it's a long way from Sacramento too

We were bored so we started a band



We like to play for you

We like to play for you

We like to play for you

We like to play for you
