Nightbird |
Some old hotel room in Memphis |
I see the city through the rain |
I’m just chasing me my time |
And rememberin' some pain |
You see, there once was a boy |
And on the street he’d surely die |
And the nightbird took him in |
And she taught him how to fly |
See the nightbird softly fly |
Why do she fly alone? |
Is the moonlight just a flame |
For her memory? |
Now she’s gone |
Two bit bars and honky tonks |
Any pleasure can be found |
You can get just what you want |
If you lay your money down |
Loney sailors do their drinking |
My, my, my how the brave men do die |
And the nightbird sells her pleasures |
Bringing tears to my eyes |
See the nightbird softly fly |
Why do she fly alone |
Is the moonlight just a flame |
For her memory? |
Now she’s gone |
So I guess I’ll go out walking |
Lord, let the rain keep falling down |
I think I’ll go chase some memories |
On the dark side of town |
See the nightbird softly fly |
Why does she fly alone |
Is the moonlight just a flame |
For her memory? |
Now she’s gone |
For her memory? |
Now she’s gone |
For her memory? |
Now she’s gone |
