lyrics

Waiting all morning for the night to fall
Hanging in the evening for the sun to call
And here I am alone staring at the wall
Don't make no difference at all

Because I'm one short of 20 and nothing to lose
Avenue 7 and the money that moves
I hear you're gonna leave me alone tonight
I'll find my way around in these shoes
Standing on the corner in the battering rain
Bare-legged little lover drove me half insane
I'll tell you my friend 'cause it's all the same
Ain't no difference between a devil and a dame

I'll hang my head,
Drown my love, but leave me enough to see me through
These 7th avenue dirty blues

I've been running around in circles all around the town
Just a-lookin' for a queen that can never be found
Bluffin' my hand, so I'll fold 'em down
On the turn or the river I'll drown
I hear there's a lady up around the way
She'll smoke you right clean and leave you in your grave
Leave you on one bended knee
Just a-beggin' hey mama please

Hang my head
Drown my love but leave me enough to see me through
These 7th avenue dirty blues

Because I'm one short of 20 and nothing to lose
Avenue 7 and the money that moves
I hear you're gonna leave me alone tonight
I'll find my way around in these shoes
Standing on the corner in the battering rain
Bare-legged little lover drove me half insane
I'll tell you my friend 'cause it's all the same
Ain't no difference between a devil and a dame

Taylor is one of many contemporary singer-songwriters who plants one foot firmly in the roots of artists such as Bob Dylan and Neil Young while at the same time pushing forward with his own unique voice. And Taylor’s particular voice so imbued with a sense of honesty and earnestness that it is almost impossible not to welcome each of his songs with open arms.-American Songwriter ... more
