The Gaslight Anthem - I'da Called You Woody, Joe lyrics
[The Gaslight Anthem - I'da Called You Woody, Joe lyrics]
I was crawling around in my head
In the haze of a trance
'Til Rico said, "I'ma turn you onto a sound
Cool out your head
This is the sound from Camden town"
And then I heard it like a shot
From my skull to my brain
I felt my fingertips tingle and
It started to rain
When the walls of my bedroom
Were tremblin' around me
This ramshackle voice over attack
Of a blue beat
Tellin' me "He's only looking for fun"
And this was the sound of the
Very last gang in town
As heard by my wild young heart like
Directions on a cold dark night
Sayin' "Let it out, let it out, let it out
You're doin' all right"
And I heard it in his chain gang soul
How it wasn't just the same sad song
Sayin' "Let it out, let it out, let it out
You're doin' all right"
And I carried these songs like
A comfort wherever I'd go
And they was there when my summers was high
And there when she left me alone
Saying, "the soul is hard to find"
And I never got to tell him
So I just wrote it down
I wrapped a couple chords around it
Then I let it come out when the walls of my
Bedroom trembled around me
This ramshackle voice over attack
Of a blue beat
And a girl, on the excitement gang
And this was the sound of the
Very last gang in town
As heard by my wild young heart like
Directions on a cold dark night
Sayin', "Let it out, let it out, let it out
You're doin' all right"
And I heard it in his chain gang soul
How it wasn't just the same sad song
Sayin', "Let it out, let it out, let it out
You're doin' all right"
That was the sound i hear the sound
Do you hear the sound? I hear the sound
Of the very last gang in town
In the haze of a trance
'Til Rico said, "I'ma turn you onto a sound
Cool out your head
This is the sound from Camden town"
And then I heard it like a shot
From my skull to my brain
I felt my fingertips tingle and
It started to rain
When the walls of my bedroom
Were tremblin' around me
This ramshackle voice over attack
Of a blue beat
Tellin' me "He's only looking for fun"
And this was the sound of the
Very last gang in town
As heard by my wild young heart like
Directions on a cold dark night
Sayin' "Let it out, let it out, let it out
You're doin' all right"
And I heard it in his chain gang soul
How it wasn't just the same sad song
Sayin' "Let it out, let it out, let it out
You're doin' all right"
And I carried these songs like
A comfort wherever I'd go
And they was there when my summers was high
And there when she left me alone
Saying, "the soul is hard to find"
And I never got to tell him
So I just wrote it down
I wrapped a couple chords around it
Then I let it come out when the walls of my
Bedroom trembled around me
This ramshackle voice over attack
Of a blue beat
And a girl, on the excitement gang
And this was the sound of the
Very last gang in town
As heard by my wild young heart like

You're doin' all right"
And I heard it in his chain gang soul
How it wasn't just the same sad song
Sayin', "Let it out, let it out, let it out
You're doin' all right"
That was the sound i hear the sound
Do you hear the sound? I hear the sound
Of the very last gang in town
