Saturday Slipped Away

Saturday Slipped Away
Theda Bara as Cleopatra by Albert Witzel 1917, edited.

and saturday slipped away
hannah sing yer heart out girl
I feel hurt in your words
your voice [draws/calls] tears
and it feels good to hear you too
after midnight [but] before three
open window
for this wandering jew
[lookin in on you]
no way the hard day slips away gently
and baby that's ok
it's ok to feel that way
it's ok to hurt deeply
to feel lost
tears have a way
of [washing/fading] the toughest stains
I liked walkin with you
when the skies were blue
we were stuck between the tender loin and nob hill
up or down in or out
up your nose in your mouth
why oh why
did we Love the south
pack it up stuff it in
day and night
deep Love mixed in sin
or sin [soaking in/surrounded by] Love
anywhere I go
you're all I know
if I go up the Housatonic
or follow the mountains south
they kinda lead to our old house
that old house
our old house
in the dirty south
there too are you
hiding in my room
peacocking zoom
going great and good
bad and bitter
in a single breath
the same breath [in/from] baggage claim...
climbing mountain forests
singing to the rain
