polk street blues

it's a greasy spoon
we were warned to stay away
but we had great food
when we went anyway

what did they know
about what was there
rumbling down in my soul
when I touched her hair

ride with me, down to polk street
and you'll see, exactly what I mean
though from the outside
appearances might veil
every thing's all right
everything is going well

when i left her
standing at the door
times will be better
and we'd want it once more

love isn't done
just because we've seen
we've lost and won
and now beginning

ride with me, down to polk street
and you'll see, exactly what I mean
though from the outside
appearances might veil
every thing's all right
everything is going well
