i see this song as a person with an unrequited love who would do anything for that person, they would follow them until "the stars go blue", a lonely person thinking about that love he never knew, where they are, what they're doing, etc... |

| Ryan Adams – Sweet Lil Gal (23rd/1st) Lyrics

to me (and in my opinion, songs, like all art are meant to mean whatever they mean to the person who experiences them)this song is not really about an actually girl, i think it is about drugs "when i'm lonely you make me feel nice" well if he's lonely obviously there is no one else there. i think this a song in the vein of "Hotel Chelsea Nights" where Mr Adams proclaims he is "strung out like some Christmas lights" and the other part of the title "23rd and 1st" is (to me) a street corner where he would buy drugs and the line "steals my shirt, makes me hurt in the field where my plane went down" is about giving things up to get another fix then coming down, the line "got a sister that's mean," maybe is an allusion from one drug to another (as in, heroin makes him feel nice but cocaine makes him feel mean and angry), and my other take on the song is that it's possibly about a hooker who gave him a good time, that he'd meet on the corner of 23rd and 1st street in NYC while staying at the Chelsea Hotel, but this is just my interpretation and this site is just here so people can argue over what they think songs are about when, in truth, the only people who know what these songs are really supposed to be about are the people that wrote them |
