First Night (demo) Songtext
von The Hold Steady

Charlemagne shakes in the streets
Gideon makes love to the sweets
Holly′s not invincible
In fact, she's in the hospital
Not far from that bar where we met
On that first night


Charlemagne pulls street corner scams
Gideon′s got a pipe made from a Pringles can
And Holly's insatiable
But she still looks incredible
But she don't look like that same girl we met

On that first night
When she was golden with bar light and beer
On that first night
When she slept like she′d never been scared

And then last night
She told me these words alone never could save us
And then last night
She leaned and then told us about Jesus
