Select language to translate this lyric
Sleepy eyes, step inside
Waiting so long, standing at my doorway
Midnight sky, riverboat ride
Light up the shore
Like the lamps of Norway
Apricot brandy wine
Syrup sweet and stone forever
Two tone tug on a line
If heaven stakes no sinners
Then hell must be a stealer
To a freewheeler
Lucky high, uptown flight
Devil's coming on
And he's taking over
God, the D train, French wine, rain
Roses of red
And a four leaf clover
Angel on the pavement scores
Dirty face and dull shine halo
Gutter children's blood, gang wars
Out on the street St. Lucifer's the dealer
To a freewheeler
Don't you drift your life away
Don't you drift your life away
Don't you drift your life away, no!
Don't you drift your life away
Don't you drift your life away
Don't you drift your life away, no!
