Atlantic City

Well, they blew up the chicken man in Philly last night

And blew up his house, too

Down on the boardwalk, they're gettin' ready for a fight

Gonna see what these racket boys can do

Trouble busin' in from outta state

And the D.A. can't get no relief

Gonna be a rumble out on the promenade

And the gamblin' commission's hangin' on by the skin of its teeth

Everything dies, that's a fact

Maybe everything that dies someday comes back

Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty

And meet me tonight in Atlantic City

I got a job and I tried to put some money away

But I got debts no honest man can pay

So I took what I had from the Central Trust

And I got us two tickets on that Coast City bus

Everything dies, that's a fact

Maybe everything that dies someday comes back

Put your makeup on, make your hair up pretty

And meet me tonight in Atlantic City

Now our luck may have died and our love's gone cold

But with you forever I'll stay

We're goin' out tonight where the sands turn to gold

So put on your stockings, girl, the night's gettin' cold

Everything dies, that's a fact

Maybe everything that dies someday comes back

I been lookin' for a job but it's hard to find

Down here it's just winners and losers and don't get caught on the wrong side of that line

I'm tired of comin' out on the losin' end

Last night I met this guy, I'm gonna do a favor for him

Last night I met this guy, I'm gonna do a favor for him

Last night I met this guy, I'm gonna do a favor for him

Last night I met this guy

Last night I met this guy

Last night I met this guy, I'm gonna do a favor for him

Everything dies, that's a fact

Maybe everything that dies someday comes back

Everything dies, that's a fact

Maybe everything that dies someday comes back

Everything dies, that's a fact

Maybe everything that dies someday comes back

Everything dies, that's a fact

Maybe everything that dies someday comes back

Everything dies, that's a fact

Maybe everything that dies someday comes back

Everything dies, that's a fact

Maybe everything that dies someday comes back
