Lady Love & The Cavalier Lyrics

Such a hard life to walk alone

Has to kick her habit too

Johnny don't like how she feels

He beat her black and blue

Drive a coal black limousine

A mausoleum to her heart

Lady don't take what she gets

He make sure she fell apart

From where I stood

I watched her falling down and down

Too tired or wasted to make it

To the other side of town

Far from Lonely Street

The other side of town

In the streets that lead downtown

You bare your back to the nightlife still

If you can't escape the stranglehold

You're gonna get your fill

Lady Love she brought this place

To bed with her every night

Now she sleeps alone in peace

Under roses in cold moonlight

From where I stand

I see her falling down and down

Too tired or wasted to make it

To the other side of town

Far from Lonely Street

The other side of town

I'm the only one paid with a smile

She called me her Cavalier

But I came way too late

To take her away from here

Lady Love she brought this place

To bed for the last time tonight

Looks like a prayer she had for peace

Had her in its sights

From where I stood

I watched them put her in the ground

Wish there was something I'd done

From the other side of town

Far from Lonely Street

The other side of town
