she could be found out dancin'
at ludlow st. and stanton
oh you should've seen her
shake it up like Orangina.
and even though she's a liar
we got on like a house on fire.
even though she's my friend
we never knew when to say when
every little move she made was a ticker tape parade
and everything she'd say was a national holiday
and even though she's a liar
no one ever got me higher
and even though she's my friend
we never knew when to say when
with red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
with red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
she was at thompkin square
staring at the grass
trying to make her eyes turn green
but it never last
and even though she's a liar
no one ever got me higher
cuz we never knew when to say when
even though she was my friend
with red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
with red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
Over on 5th and C
she got her beers for free
And every time I came in there
she always laughed at me
she said, "Who let this child in here?"
you look like you teach math
your appled eyes betray
you've never known loneliness
with red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
with red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
