lyrics

I Sold My Soul on Gallatin Road

Verse 1
I sold my soul down on Gallatin Road
cause everywhere I go there’s someone who knows

Chorus 1&3
They came from the go west young man
they came from the dark
they came from the places
I shut down down in my heart
they come from Brooklyn
under the BQE
they don’t give a goddamn goddamn
what you’re doing to me
yeah I sold my soul down on Gallatin Road
cause everywhere I go
it’s like I’m drinking with ghosts
I’m drinking with ghosts

Verse 2
Love on paper is a beautiful thing
love’s what you came for not what you bring

Chorus 2
They came from the DTLA
the golden lands
they came from the lakeshore still high
thirtysomething again
they came with a card and a girlfriend
a hope and a lie
I see that new leather jacket still fits
it gets smoky at night
yeah I sold my soul down on Gallatin Road
cause everywhere I go
it’s like I’m drinking with ghosts
I’m drinking with ghosts

Bridge
Give it some spin give it a ring spend the night with him
after kissing me
give it some spin give it a ring spend the night with him
for what you’ll never be you’ll never be

Rhythm section Kevin Williams (bass) and Kent Aberle (drums) snarl and twist through songs that can only be described as the New York Dolls on an all-night Leonard Cohen bender, with hints of Hum and the Damned. ... more
