The Gaslight Anthem - The Diamond Church Street Choir

Now the lights go low on the avenue
And the cars pass by in the rain
University boys and the girls fill the bars
While I'm just waiting on the light to change
And the steam heat pours from the bodies on the floor
Down in the basement where the jackknives play
For the hub city girls in their ribbons and their curls
Who know the meaning of staying out late
They know the meaning of staying out very, very late
Singing who does it better than we do
Them sopranos in Andy Diamond's choir
And whoa, nobody knows
I've been crazy for so long without you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
They'll find me beat down out in the universe
Though I'll never forget where I'm from
I might have moved away from home and slept out there on my own
A million miles away in the storm
But the beat never leaves and the tempo's a relief
To my aching bones, rambling all over
And if I'm gone for too long I can always hum along
So don't you never forget what I told you
So don't you never forget what I told you
Everybody singing who does it better than we do
Them sopranos in Andy Diamond's choir
And whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, nobody knows
I've been crazy for so long without you
And just, baby, who sings the rhythm and the blues
So sad, so slow, like I do, like I do
And oh, ain't it just like you want to
And oh, ain't it just like you always wanted to
Every night waiting
So long without you
Baby, who sings it better than we do
Them sopranos in Andy Diamond's choir
And whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, nobody knows
I've been crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy
And just, baby, who sings the rhythm and the blues
So sad, so slow, like I do
And just like you want to
