This is the day |
Of the expanding man |
That shape is my shade |
There where I used to stand |
It seems like only yesterday |
I gazed through the glass |
At ramblers |
Wild gamblers |
That’s all in the past |
You call me a fool |
You say it’s a crazy scheme |
This one’s for real |
I already bought the dream |
So useless to ask me why |
Throw a kiss and say goodbye |
I’ll make it this time |
I’m ready to cross that fine line |
Learnt to work the saxophone |
I, I play just what I feel |
Drink Scotch whiskey all night long |
(Aah) |
And die behind the wheel |
They got a name for the winners in the world |
I, I want a name when I lose |
They call Alabama, «The Crimson Tide» |
(Aah) |
Call me Deacon Blues |
(Deacon Blues) |
My back to the wall |
A victim of laughing chance |
This is for me |
The essence of true romance |
Sharing the things we know and love |
With those of my kind |
Libations |
Sensations |
That stagger the mind |
I crawl like a viper |
Through these suburban streets |
Make love to these women |
Languid and bittersweet |
I’ll rise when the sun goes down |
Cover every game in town |
A world of my own |
I’ll make it my home sweet home |
Learnt to work the saxophone |
I, I play just what I feel |
Drink Scotch whiskey all night long |
(Aah) |
And die behind the wheel |
They got a name for the winners in the world |
I, I want a name when I lose |
They call Alabama, «The Crimson Tide» |
(Aah) |
Call me Deacon Blues |
(Deacon Blues) |
This is the night |
Of the expanding man |
I take one last drag |
As I approach the stand |
I cried when I wrote this song |
Sue me if I play too long |
This brother is free |
I’ll be what I want to be |
I learnt to work the saxophone |
I, I play just what I feel |
Drink Scotch whiskey all night long |
(Aah) |
And die behind the wheel |
They got a name for the winners in the world |
I, I want a name when I lose |
They call Alabama, «The Crimson Tide» |
(Aah) |
Call me Deacon Blues |
(Deacon Blues) |
