Black 47 - 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 god sake 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 god sake 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 mind

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 god sake 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"

It's time to

It's time to

It's time to
