The Queen of Lower Chelsea

Did you grow up lonesome and one of a kind? Were your records all you had to pass the time? Or maybe you were taken by the mysteries of New Orleans? Or the uptight, rowdy girls of Lower Chelsea? And we're hustling under but we live in the city And we keep it down when we take a beating Yeah, we keep it down with the radio on And if you find a good man, don't take him home When you're working full-time And spending all of your nights never dancing like you did While the gravity hangs on all the selling points you had, She'll still remain the Queen of Lower Chelsea Did you grow up a good girl, You daddy's pride? Did you make all the right moves, Take all the right drugs right on time? American girls, they want the whole world They want every last little light in New York City But we're hustling under and we're fast asleep And we keep it down when we take a beating Yeah, we keep it down with the radio on And if you find a good man, don't take him home When you're working full-time And spending all of your nights never dancing like you did While the gravity hangs on all the selling points you had, She'll still remain the Queen of Lower Chelsea Well they say these days, Nothing comes cheap And everything has a price Everything has a price Nothing is free Not even me When you're working full-time And spending all of your nights never dancing like you did While the gravity hangs on all the selling points you had, She'll still remain the Queen of Lower Chelsea When you're working full-time And spending all of your nights never dancing like you did While the gravity hangs on all the selling points you had, She'll still remain the Queen of Lower Chelsea --- The Queen of Lower Chelsea - The Gaslight Anthem
