The Motor City Is Burning Songtext
von John Lee Hooker
The Motor City Is Burning Songtext
You were the one spring Arkansas, babe
You took 20 baths a day
You went to one spring Arkansas, babe
You took 20 baths a day
But whatever you have
It just can′t be wiped away
I could tell by the way
You crawl up the hill, babe
I could tell by the way
You crawl up the hill, babe
Somebody had taken you
Taken you through the mill
'Cause when your eye roll back, baby
And your nose begin to run
When your eye roll back, babe
And your nose begin to run
You can bet all the tears shining
Hot spring water won′t help you none
You took 20 baths a day
You went to one spring Arkansas, babe
You took 20 baths a day
But whatever you have
It just can′t be wiped away
I could tell by the way
You crawl up the hill, babe
I could tell by the way
You crawl up the hill, babe
Somebody had taken you
Taken you through the mill
'Cause when your eye roll back, baby
And your nose begin to run
When your eye roll back, babe
And your nose begin to run
You can bet all the tears shining
Hot spring water won′t help you none
