Rickie Lee Jones - Living It Up Lyrics
Eddies got one crazy eyeThat turns him into a cartoonWahen a pretty girl comes byAnd theres nothin here to do anymoreHe sits on the stoop all dayLike theres something hes waiting forCunt-finger louie picks up eddie in the alleyHes got all those guys with himFrom that town where they all look like frankie valliThey speak fluently blondeFrom her legs to her cigaretteAnd louie told eddie that hed fix him upBut he aint come back yetWell, you knowIts more trouble than its worthIts more trouble than its worthOh wild and the only onesTell him where you are ---Oh wild and the only onesTell him where you areTell him where you areZero quit schoolAnd she lost her job againAnd then her boyfriend beat her upAnd now he wont let her inSo shes walking by his jointIn a black and blue dressShe looks at louie who elbows eddie who saysdont tell me, lemme guess.Its more trouble than its worthHes more trouble than hes worthOh wild and the only onesTell him where you are ---Oh wild and the only onesTell him where you areWell at first when it was this wayWhen theyre the only onesAnd youve got all these ideasYou never tell to anyoneThere are always magnetsPulling each of you thereLiving every story youd dareTo be the only onesThe only ones...Oh, who are living it upOh yeah, were living it upOh yeah, well be living it upOh yeah, were living it upGotta be living it upOh yeah, were living it upOh yeah, were living it upOh yeah, were living it upOh yeah, were living it upOh yeah, were living it upLouie and eddie found a reason then and thereCarried her over the bridges like fluttering pages they didnt careIn the terminal where dreamsLet so many tickets throughWhen strangers look in facesAnd see somebody there they knewYou might meet me tomorrowAs all the lights are blooming greenAnd youre feeling a little lonely,A little sad, a little meanRemember a placeInside of that hotelWhere you could do anything you want to doYou couldnt tellIf its more trouble than its worthAh, this is more trouble than its worthOh wild and the only onesTell him where you are ---Oh wild and the only onesIm waiting you couldTell him where you are ---Oh wild and the only onesWhy dont you tell him where you are?
