Noirsille Tune of the Week

 More Ricki Lee Jones


Young Blood


Take a walk around midnight in the City

Young Blood is hiding there somewhere

If your looking for something to do

There's always something happening there

Like I and Bragger, we borrowed a coup today

Here come Pepe and she's got a friend in a Chevrolet

But she ain't running, she just walking a little slow,

and she ain't crying, she's just singin a little low...

"They say this city will make you dirty, but you look alright,

you feel real pretty when he's holding you tight"

City will make you mean

But that's the make up on your face

Love will wash you clean in the nights disgrace.

Find a block where your people can find you

Keep a third eye watching behind you

You never know when your making a memory

They will wish they were here together again, someday

Kids looking for something to get into take a look

Two for the movie show

Three in the back row

Hold on tight!

Remember you might have looked like cool twelve

But your fuse felt just like dynamite

City will make you dirty, but you look alright,

you feel real pretty when he's holding you tight

City will make you mean

But that's the make up on your face

Love will wash you clean in the night... dirty dirty dirt dirt...

Take a walk around midnight in the City

Young Blood will find you there somewhere

and if your looking for something to do

There's always something happening there

Something's happening there oooh ooh ooooh

Something's happening there hey hey hey... looky here y'all
