Walking this city’s sidewalk Where baby took a leave in the pouring rain Wet streets filled with sorrow Maybe baby couldn’t stand the vain Where do the bluebirds fly In the dark city sky Another day goes by Under the dark city sky
The golden moon’s full of tricks dear And the diamond fever’s gonna cool down I can’t patch it up here There’s no cash flowin when you’re not around Where do the bluebirds fly In the dark city sky Another day goes by Under the dark city sky
The night falls and I’m waiting I’m down on the corner where baby could be found She’s a whole lotta woman And when she comes-a-walking don’t you love the sound Where do the bluebirds fly In the dark city sky Another day goes by Under the dark city sky
