Píseň: It's Raining Here In Long Beach
- Interpret:
- Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
- Album:
- Ricochet
It's been raining here in Long Beach The dampness in the air Tends to straighten out my hair Against my wishes But the traces of a song reach My tattered ear once more Lend me courage to ignore The smell of fishes I was a drunken lout, I ran about With ladies that I knew I did 'em wrong all night long Singing 23 skidoo Huzahh...huzahh... Once upon a time I was a kid Well I don't know what happened then But I'm warning all you younger men On your way to Long Beach think again You can't afford to settle down in Long Beach I had a rack and coat, a paddle boat I played the ukelele Beneath the moon in June I'd croon Won't you come on home little baby Huzahh...huzahh... Once upon a time I was a kid But now my hair is turning gray I'm getting fatter every day If you got any sense you'll stay away And never give another thought to Long Beach And never give a moment's thought to Long Beach
