War Child presents Heroes movie - Atlantic City lyrics
rate me
Well they blew up<br>
the chicken man<br>
in Philly<br>
last night now<br>
they blew up<br>
his house too<br>
Down on the boardwalk<br>
they're gettin' ready<br>
for a fight gonna see<br>
what them racket boys<br>
can do<br>
<br>
Now<br>
there's trouble busin'<br>
in from outta state<br>
and the D.A.<br>
can't get no relief<br>
Gonna be a rumble out<br>
on the promenade<br>
and the<br>
gamblin' commissions<br>
hangin' on<br>
by the skin<br>
of its teeth<br>
<br>
Everything dies<br>
baby that's a fact<br>
But maybe everything<br>
that dies<br>
someday comes back<br>
Put your makeup<br>
on fix<br>
your hair up pretty<br>
and meet me tonight<br>
in Atlantic City<br>
<br>
Well I got a job<br>
and tried<br>
to put my money away<br>
But I got in too deep<br>
and I could not pay<br>
So I drew what I had<br>
from the Central Trust<br>
And I bought us<br>
two tickets<br>
on that Coast City bus<br>
<br>
Everything dies<br>
baby that's a fact<br>
But maybe everything<br>
that dies someday<br>
comes back<br>
Put your makeup<br>
on fix<br>
your hair up pretty<br>
and meet me tonight<br>
in Atlantic City<br>
<br>
Now our luck<br>
may have died<br>
and our love<br>
may be cold<br>
but with you<br>
forever I'll stay<br>
We're goin' out<br>
where the sands<br>
turnin' to gold<br>
so put<br>
on your stockin's<br>
cause the nights<br>
gettin' cold<br>
and maybe<br>
everything dies<br>
That's a fact<br>
but maybe<br>
everything<br>
that dies someday<br>
comes back<br>
<br>
Now<br>
I been lookin'<br>
for a job<br>
but it's hard<br>
to find<br>
Down here<br>
it's just winners<br>
and losers<br>
and don't get<br>
caught on<br>
the wrong side<br>
of that line<br>
Well I'm tired<br>
of comin' out<br>
on the losin' end<br>
So honey<br>
last night<br>
I met this guy<br>
and I'm gonna do<br>
a little favor<br>
for him<br>
Well<br>
I guess<br>
everything dies<br>
baby that's a fact<br>
But maybe everything<br>
that dies<br>
someday comes back<br>
Put your makeup<br>
on fix<br>
your hair up pretty<br>
and meet me tonight<br>
in Atlantic City<br>
<br>
