Black 47 - The Banks of the Hudson lyrics

on the banks of the hudson, my love and i lay down

just above 42nd street, while the rain was pouring down

when i covered her with kisses, the sparks lit up her eyes

we made love like mad angels, while the jersey trucks rolled by

she said "don't you ever leave me, oh for godsake don't let me down"

so i made her all kinds of promises about how i'd always be around

but the speed was rippin' through my head, i'd only one thing on my mind

so goodbye my love on 42nd Street, if i don't get out of here, i'm gonna die

on the banks of the hudson, my love and i lay down

just one more midnight left to kill, then i'm outta new york town

i could feel the ice man closin' in, i could almost smell his gun

but that 20 grand i beat him out of would help me start again back home

and she said "don't you ever leave me, oh for godsake don't let me down

then i thought about what they'd do to her when they found out i'd left town

but the fire was racin' through my brain, i'd only one thing on my mindBlack 47 - The Banks of the Hudson - http://motolyrics.com/black-47/the-banks-of-the-hudson-lyrics.html

so goodbye my love on 42nd street, if i don't get out of here i'm gonna die

don't say i should have stayed with her,

you don't know the full story about the girl

i only used her just as much as she used me

but sometimes you just gotta get out of new york city

on the banks of the hudson, my love and i lay down

just above 42nd street, while the rain was pouring down

when I covered her with kisses, the sparks lit up her eyes

we made love like mad angels, while the jersey trucks rolled by

and she said "don't you ever leave me, oh for godsake don't let me down

but how could I ever take a black girl back to wexford town

just then the streets of fire turned to blood, a yellow cadillac cruised by

and as i raced up 42nd street, the ice man shouted

"hey paddy, it's time to die"
