I Coul'da Been A Contender |
| I’m broke and I’m hungry |
| I’m hard up and I’m lonely |
| I’ve been dancing on this killing floor for years |
| Of the few things that I am certain |
| I’m the captain of my burden |
| I’m sorry doll, I could never stop the rain |
| Once you said I was your hero |
| You would dance with me on a dime |
| We could spin this world right, right, right round |
| And catch back up on the flipside |
| I was gonna get this real big engine |
| I was gonna get them Broadway stars |
| You were gonna be my Judy Garland |
| We were gonna share your tin man heart |
| There’s a dirty wind blowing |
| There’s a storm front coming in |
| There’s an SOS on the seas tonight |
| Steady now, Steady now |
| Soldier hold fast now |
| It’s heads or tails on heart attacks and broken dreams tonight |
| We used to drive all night, all over town |
| We’d go Waltzing Matilda, when Matilda came around |
| (And I always sang them blues… to you) |
| There’s a dirty wind blowing |
| There’s a storm front coming in |
| There’s an SOS on the seas tonight |
| Steady now, Steady now |
| Soldier hold fast now |
| It’s heads or tails on heart attacks and broken dreams tonight |
| There’s a dirty wind blowing |
| There’s a storm front coming in |
| There’s an SOS on the seas tonight |
| Steady now, Steady now |
| Soldier hold fast now |
| It’s heads or tails on heart attacks and broken dreams tonight |
| There’s a dirty wind blowing |
| There’s a storm front coming in |
| There’s an SOS on the seas tonight |
| Steady now, Steady now |
| Soldier hold fast now |
| It’s heads or tails on heart attacks and broken dreams |
| On heart attacks and broken dreams |
| Atlantis is my only dream tonight |
