Memphis & 53rd Songtext
von Minus the Bear

"Come on man", she said, "We′ve lived without this town
I can't stand another day"
I said, "We′ll leave things, you can pack our bill
Let me get the bag and I can make it straight"
It was the same as yesterday

We've been gone and the miles stretched down the long road
We moved as fast as we could

Through the heat of the desert and cruelty of that Buick's seat
Just to keep on
Through the heat of the desert and cruelty of that Buick′s seat
Just to keep on


That night we laid on the floor of the desert
But I could barely sleep, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
There was a man in a black car with a man in the back seat
And I woke up in a cold sweat with her lyin′ by, by, by, by, by, by

We've been gone and the miles stretched down the long road
We moved as fast as we could

Through the heat, cruelty, cruelty, cruelty, cruelty
Just to keep, keep, keep, keep
We sat on the corner, we sat on the corner
We sat, we sat on the corner

That night we laid on the floor of the desert
[Incomprehensible]
There was a man in a black car with a man in the back seat
I′d wake up in a cold sweat with her lying next to me
Lying next, next, next to me
