Well the red light fades and the sun won’t shine Tried to chase those ghosts from this heart of mine And the red town lady said she’d take me cryin’
Take me down where the people carry roses Take me down where the street signs know me inside out
Well the cheap red wine is the kind I love the best Makes the days flash by in a magical mess And the red town lady let’s my soul confess
Take me down with your money and your roses Take me down where the night comes crashing through the window
Look out boy! Take the backseat and make them enjoy The sound Of this hopeless mess Spend their money Watch them undress Their soul! In a furious fire Round the tin can Smoke out the lyre And leave In a jealous hurricane They won’t forget your name!
Carry me home, carry me home, carry me Won’t somebody chase this pain from my door Oh won’t you carry me home, carry me home, carry me, Won’t somebody chase this pain from my window
Carry me home, carry me home, carry me Won’t somebody chase this pain from my door Oh won’t you carry me home, carry me home, carry me, Won’t somebody chase this pain from my window
Carry me home, carry me home, carry me, Won’t somebody chase this pain from my window Carry me home, carry me home, carry me Won’t somebody chase this pain from my door
