Central Ave Beatniks & Disneyland

歌詞

The day they shut down the carnival I had nowhere to go I heard about some work stateside A circus run, might be fun So I left my red clay home, hitchhiked to New York City Bright lights on the river, Liberty deliver me I'm so far from heaven and I'm all alone When the last boat leaves tonight, I'm the only man of Coney Island I got the job because I'm strong They don't care where I come from No they prefer not to know, in case I crack Like Jack before me. Suicide is what they meant, beneath The double Ferris wheel Yes, it can get lonely here, without my wife and Family near I'm so far from heaven and I'm all alone When the last crowd leaves tonight I'm the only man, on Coney Island On the boardwalk promenade, lovers Trade their promises Beneath the starry lights shining with artifice It's been twenty years, it seems just like yesterday I haven't seen Canada, time just crept away I'm so far from heaven and I'm all alone When the last boat leaves tonight... I'm so far from heaven and I'm all alone When the last star leaves the sky I'm the only man on Coney Island
