Hallelujah Jordan he went to the nearest bar he ordered |
|
Whiskey and Soda |
|
See how far he'd get to forgetting her |
|
Yeah |
|
He met her in an all night cafe |
|
And they sat all night drinking coffee |
|
And talking, and they found they had a lot in common |
|
And later on they went back to his place and sat till dawn |
|
Laughing, Talking, yeah, they found they had a lot in common |
|
He was young |
|
He had a young spirit |
|
They could have kissed all night |
|
And he knew that he loved her, yeah |
|
But now you'll find Hallelujah Jordan in some unknown late bar |
|
Trying to tell strange folks his secrets and his problems, yeah |
|
Yeah, you'll find Hallelujah Jordan in a late bar in the ghetto |
|
Wine stains on his belly and Oh He'll tell ya |
|
How she was falttered by a smart young man |
|
He drove a fast car and Ooh Ooh she went |
|
Hallelujah Jordan, you can tell me your secrets |
|
You can tell me your problems |
|
I think I know what you mean |
|
Now Hallelujah loves the bottle more brittle than her body |
|
More brittle than the heart that she'd broken, yeah |
|
Hallelujah left this town |
|
The next drink he had he drowned, Oh |
|
Finally drowned his sorrows, Yeah |
