letra de scarlet town - joe bonamassa
in scarlet town, where i was born
there’s ivy leaf and silver th-rn
the streets have names that you can’t pr-nounce
gold is down to a quarter of an ounce
the music starts and the people sway
everybody says, “are you going my way?”
uncle tom still workin’ for uncle bill
scarlet town is under the hill
scarlet town in the month of may
sweet william holme on his deathbed lay
mistress mary by the side of the bed
kissin’ his face, heapin’ prayers on his head
so brave and true, so gentle is he
i’ll weep for him as he’d weep for me
little boy blue come blow your h-rn
in scarlet town, where i was born
scarlet town, in the hot noon hours
there’s palm-leaf shadows and scattered flowers
beggars crouching at the gate
help comes, but it comes too late
by marble slabs and in fields of stone
you make your humble wishes known
i touched the garment, but the hem was torn
in scarlet town, where i was born
in scarlet town, the end is near
the seven wonders of the world are here
the evil and the good, livin’ side by side
all human forms seem glorified
put your heart on a platter and see who’ll bite
see who’ll hold you and kiss you good night
there’s walnut groves and maple wood
in scarlet town cryin’, won’t do no good
in scarlet town, you fight your father’s foes
up on the hill, a chilly wind blows
you fight ’em on high and you fight ’em down in
you fight ’em with whiskey, morphine and gin
you’ve got legs that can drive men mad
a lot of things we didn’t do, that i wish we had
in scarlet town, the sky is clear
you’ll wish to god that you stayed right here
set ’em joe, play “walkin’ the floor”
play it for my flat-chested junkie wh0re
i’m staying up late, i’m making amends
while we smile, our heaven descends
if love is a sin, then beauty is a crime
all things are beautiful, in their time
the black and the white, the yellow and the brown
it’s all right there in front of you in scarlet town
