The iowa weather was 13 below | |
I had come to des moines for a radio show | |
I awoke in the evening from a traveler's sleep | |
With notions of something to eat | |
The old elevator slid down past the floors | |
My head and my eyes said "you should have slept more." | |
The man at the desk said the restaurant was closed | |
Outside it was 14 below | |
The lounge was still open and so i walked in | |
In place of my food i had two double gins | |
I looked 'round the room, as a tourist would do | |
That's when i saw the girl in the booth | |
She sat there and cried in the smoky half-dark | |
The silent type crying that tears out your heart | |
Her clothes were not cut in the new modern way | |
And her suitcase had seen better days | |
Nobody asked her what caused her such pain | |
Nobody spoke up, yet no one complained | |
Without even asking, i knew why she cried | |
Life is just like that sometimes | |
The man at the desk said, "it's 15 below." | |
The bellhop said "yeah man, that's cold...that's cold." | |
I went back to my room and i wrote down this song | |
Oh it sure can get cold in des moines |
