Lyrics Re-Entry Blues - The Grifters

Re-Entry Blues

Still in the hearse
A terrible thirst
And a love of a fast ride
Its harder to tell
If i’m staring at hell
Or is that the sunrise
Las Vegas at dawn
Is getting it on
Miss you so fine
Staring at the pearls
Maybe the curls
The girl that she looks like
Say your suntan fades away
And check my suitcase back to El Rey
The king is dead and i’m moving on
Yeah exploding
One last chance re-entry abandoned
One last chance re-entry abandoned
Gravity please
Come and pull me under
I think I hear the sound
Rolling thunder
Yeah exploding
One last chance re-entry abandoned
Well check out this place
Ladies have horns
And the paste on their trays
You can shoot up your arm
Truth has become
Martinis and toast
And look at me now
I’m the most
Distilled at the source
A beautiful force, yeah
(One last chance re-entry)
Say vanity, yes
But I’m surrounded by guests
And that’s all I know
To go as far as I can
Chasing after the things that come easily
(One last chance re-entry abandoned)
Oh, Diamond for pearls
The smell of the girls
The mighty fine appetite
Gravity please come and pull me under
Oh well I think I hear the sounds of rolling thunder
The king is dead and i’m moving on
Yeah exploding
One last chance re-entry abandoned
