Manhattan Kansas 歌詞

Manhattan Kansas ain't no place to have a baby When you got no man to give it his last name And the folks back in Manhattan didn't want me or my bundle So I took my child and caught an evening train And I found a job in Denver washing dishes in a diner At least it buys my baby milk to drink He once told me I was pretty but the only ring it got me Is the ring of grease that runs around the sink Yes I laid beside him gentle cause he told me that he loved me And he made me dance before the music played But at least I didn't beg him I'd rather wash my dishes Cause it makes me feel as if my hands're clean Sometimes I stand there thinkin' bout the men back home in Kansas And how my folks just turned away ashamed I stare down through the soap suds reach down and pulls the drain plug And watche as Manhattan drains away Yes I laid beside him gentle... Yes it makes me feel as if my hands're clean
