Luyện nghe bài hát The Old Part Of Town

(Peter Case)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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