Luyện nghe bài hát The Old Part Of Town

(Peter Case)

Last night I wandered drunk & enraptured
Out on the beltway where the business is
As I lay on the asphalt neath the glow of light boxesI heard somebody say bet I know hes from

When the is so quiet you can hear the bell tower tickin
Out on the beltway theyre sellin the
Where the tempers are short & the hours are longDarlin, wont you me in the old part of town?

Old part of townYou can still the footsteps of the old mystery
Old part of can still feel the heartbeat of our whole historyWhen the heat on the street is wearin you down
Darlin, wont you meet me in the old part of

Saw two red high heel shoes split up around
They said theyd meet later by the at Third
Four tires came from different directions& picked em both up fore they stepped off the curb

Cause in the hours past midnight they keeping tabs
The carnival are vacant & sad
But darlin I think theres still a to be hadIn the old part of town where your mom met your dad
wont you meet me in the old part of town?

Saw a with big headlines
seemed to stare right through ya
Jump off a boxcar and blow into
Pick a fight two beer cans and a torn candy wrapper
The broom sweeping up the alley swore she never a sound

Meanwhile back on the beltway the are waiting in lines
Stars are blocked out by the shine of the
You might want to say Its a sign of the
But darlin wont you me in the old part of town
Darlin, wont you meet me in the old part of
