Do Wrong, Do Right |
Johnny tends a bar on 29th and Carson |
Lobby of the Grand Old Hotel |
Listens to the stories, tales of hope and glory |
While he’s mixing drinks at the well |
And every night he sighs, hearing the alibis |
Love is waiting, love is waiting |
Do wrong, you do right |
You paint it black, you paint it white |
And you fight the good fight every night |
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose |
Whatever it takes to get you through |
'Cause you fight the good fight every night |
Johnny has a child who ran a little wild |
And now he tends the bars of his cell |
Blaming it on a girlfriend, blaming it on the world |
Then blaming everyone but himself |
And every night he sighs, thinking of alibis |
Love is waiting, love is waiting |
Do wrong, you do right |
You paint it black, you paint it white |
And you fight the good fight every night |
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose |
Whatever it takes to get you through |
'Cause you fight the good fight every night |
Do wrong, you do right |
You paint it black, you paint it white |
And you fight the good fight every night |
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose |
Whatever it takes to get you through |
'Cause you fight the good fight every night |
