| [00:02.63] | Songs Title：just like tom thumb’s blues |
| [00:10.60] | youre When lost in the rain in juarez |
| [00:14.86] | its And easter time too |
| [00:20.51] | And your gravity fails |
| [00:22.76] | And negativity dont pull you through |
| [00:30.53] | Dont put on any airs |
| [00:33.71] | When youre down on rue morgue avenue |
| [00:39.89] | They got some hungry women there |
| [00:42.70] | And they really make a mess out of you |
| [00:55.18] | Now if you see saint annie |
| [00:59.51] | tell Please her thanks a lot |

| [01:07.44] | My fingers are all in a knot |
| [01:14.97] | I dont have the strength |
| [01:18.46] | To get up and take another shot |
| [01:24.83] | And my best friend my doctor |
| [01:27.84] | Wont even say what it is I have got |
| [01:40.58] | Sweet melinda |

| [01:50.81] | speaks She good english |
| [01:53.21] | And she invites you up into her room |
| [01:59.70] | And youre so kind |
| [02:01.65] | And careful not to go to her too soon |
| [02:08.93] | And then she takes your voice |
| [02:11.41] | And leaves you howling at the moon ............. |
| [02:29.23] | Up on housing project hill |
| [02:33.23] | Its either fortune or fame |
| [02:38.43] | You can take one or the other |
| [02:42.24] | Though neither of them |
| [02:43.15] | Are to be what they claim |
| [02:49.01] | If youre looking to get silly |
| [02:52.13] | You better go back from where you came |
| [02:58.25] | Because the cops dont need you |
| [03:01.15] | And man they expect the same |
| [03:14.40] | the Now authoritiesall |
| [03:15.08] | |
| [03:17.88] | just They stand around and boast |
| [03:23.46] | Hew they blackmailed the sergeant at arms |
| [03:27.16] | Into leaving his post |
| [03:32.78] | And picking up my brother car who |
| [03:36.71] | Just arrived here from the coast |
| [03:42.46] | Who looked so fine at first |

| [04:06.72] | But soon hit the harder stuff |
| [04:12.83] | Everybody said theyd stand behind me |
| [04:16.27] | When the game got rough |
| [04:21.38] | ah But the joke was on me |
| [04:24.72] | There was nobody even there to bluff |
| [04:30.62] | Im going back to new york city |
| [04:33.87] | I do believe Ive had enough |
