Between the 1 and the 9 Songtext
von Patti Rothberg

Right now in the dampness of a tunnel
The old man sits in his wine
He plays his heart with a guitar and a harp
For a little bit of love and a dime

I passed him, know him as a Charlie
Each and every passing day
Our eyes had met, but we hadn′t yet
Til he asked me if I know how to play


(Chorus)
So we put on a harmony
And our senses woke that day, yeah
Tell me mister, do you have the time now?
It's 24/7 on the Avenue Line
Throw me some notes
For a change of mind
Between the 1 and the 9
Between the 1 and the 9

What happened next
The thing I like the best
People started listening in
They took a pause
From business at large
To turn and drop a frown to a grin

There was a lady
She pulled me aside
She said I could be living large
In her Mercedes, we went for a ride
And y′know, that was when I put her in charge

(Chorus)

"Guitar"

(Chorus)

Between the 1 and the 9
Between the 1 and the 9
