paroles de chanson Absolutely Sweet Marie (feat. TK & The Holy Know-Nothings) - John Craigie

Well your railroad gate you know I just can't jump it
Sometimes it gets so hard you see
I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet
With all the promises you left for me
But where are you tonight, sweet Marie

I waited for you when I was half sick
I waited for you when you hated me
I waited for you in the frozen traffic
And you knew that I had somewhere else to be
Well where are you tonight, sweet Marie

Anybody can be just like me obviously
But then again not anyone can be like you fortunately

Yeah six white horses that you did promise
Were finally delivered down to the penitentiary
But to live outside the law you must be honest
I know you always say you agree
But where are you tonight, sweet Marie

I don't know how it happened
But the river boat captain he knows my fate
And everybody else, even yourself, they're gonna have to wait

Hell I got the fever down in my pockets
That same old drunk dude he follows me

I could take him to your house but I can't unlock it
Because you forgot to leave me with the key
Where are you tonight, sweet Marie
Where are you tonight, sweet Marie
