LYRICS
When you're lost in the rain in Juarez And it's Eastertimetoo And your gravity fails And negativity don't pull you through Don't put on any airs When you're down on Rue Morgue Avenue They got
some hungry women there And they really make a mess outa you Now if you see Saint Annie Please tell her thanks a lot I cannot move My
fingers are all in a knot I don't have the strength To get up and take another shot And my best friend, my doctor Won't even say what it
is I've got Sweet Melinda The peasants call her the goddess of gloom She speaks good English And she invites you up into her room And
you're so kind And careful not to go to her too soon And she takes your voice And leaves you howling at the moon Up on Housing Project
Hill It's either fortune or fame You must pick up one or the other Though neither of them are to be what they claim If you're lookin'
to get silly You better go back to from where you came Because the cops don't need you And man they expect the same Now all the
authorities They just stand around and boast How they blackmailed the sergeant-at-arms Into leaving his post And picking up Angel who Just
arrived here from the coast Who looked so fine at first But left looking just like a ghost I started out on burgundy But soon hit the
harder stuff Everybody said they'd stand behind me When the game got rough But the joke was on me There was nobody even there to call my
bluff I'm going back to New York City I do believe I've had enough
