If I ever find myself one day Drinkin' in a dreamers cabaret Dreams be what they seem. Yeah I figured it must be nice easy street in paradise, without a care 'til the truth comes clean. Hard to make an old penny shine Hard to untangle the line Hard to hold a fortune of you. Paid the price I'll never know Walking them lonely streets of gold with a million dollar blues. Steppin' my heels to the ol' concrete Walkin' to the time of my heartbeat Hopin' these soles they never wear through. Watchin' all the workers in the street Tamp the tar and cuss the heat, laughin' at a joke somebody knew. Hard to make an old penny shine Hard to untangle the line Hard to hold a fortune of you. Paid the price I'll never know Walking them lonely streets of gold with a million dollar blues. Drinkin' in a dreamers cabaret A thousand thoughts away, a thousand thoughts of you. Hard to make an old penny shine Hard to untangle the line Hard to hold a fortune of you. Paid the price I'll never know Walking them lonely streets of gold with a million dollar blues. Paid the price I'll never know Walking them lonely streets of gold with a million dollar blues.
