All About Eve - Hard Spaniard Lyrics
A red neon sign draws himinto a wine barwhere a woman is cryingUnaware of the whisky he's buying her''Can I join you a while ma'am?''''Honey, when you're as broken up as I amYou'd have to be Jesus to join up all these pieces''The night before the morning after''Are you here alone,can I take you home?It's a real disgraceseeing your pretty facein this ugly place''A ride in a taxito a rented apartment in a back streetWhisky-bottle graveyardRent is low so she's trying to save hardto get out of the cityit takes time but she won't take his pityThey carry on drinkingand she knows what he's thinkingAnd her stockings are tornand the heels of her shoes are wornShe could be a waitressshe could be an actressBut he thinks she's a temptressThere's a space in her bedwhere the stranger laid his headShe remembers him kissing herHe was such a good listenerBut he sure won't be missing her
