[00:05.764]Well my friends are gone, my hair is grey
[00:10.859]And I ache in all the places where I used to play
[00:15.280]And I'm crazy for love, but I'm not coming on
[00:25.141]I'm just paying my rent every day in the tower of song
[00:32.404]
[00:35.439]I said to Hank Williams, "how lonely does it get?"
[00:41.132]Hank Williams hasn't answered yet
[00:46.257]But I hear him coughing all night long
[00:54.437]A one hundred floors above me in the, in the tower of song
[01:01.869]
[01:04.038]Come on
[01:06.233]
[01:33.540]I was born like this, I had no choice
[01:38.524]I was born with the gift of a golden voice
[01:43.837]And twenty seven angels from the great beyond
[01:52.880]They tied me to this table right here in the tower of song
[02:02.022]
[02:02.614]So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll
[02:08.098]I'm very sorry baby doesn't look like me at all
[02:12.582]And I'm standing by the window where the light is strong
[02:22.099]They don't let a woman kill you, not in the tower of song
[02:28.875]
[02:31.833]Come on
[02:33.689]
[03:01.331]Now you can say that I've grown bitter, but of this you may be sure
[03:06.530]The rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor
[03:11.140]And there's a mighty judgement coming, but I may be wrong
[03:20.552]You see I hear these funny voices in the tower of song
[03:27.601]
[03:30.463]Now I bid you farewell I don't know when I'll be back
[03:35.918]They're moving us tomorrow to that tower down the track
[03:40.640]But you'll be hearing from me baby long after I'm gone
[03:49.884]I'll be speaking to you sweetly from my window in the tower of song
[03:58.402]
[03:59.837]Come on
