Shanghai`d In Shanghai — текст песни (nazareth)

Standing on a corner in downtown L.A.
Waiting for the man to come along
She comes up to me and says too bad, too sad
You know that he`s been dead and gone.
L.A. lady, kinda shady
She picked him up and took him home
I woke up groggy my sight was smoggy
And I knew that it had been blown
Early in the morning sitting in a hotel
Moscow`s looking fine through the wine
Spaced out I crashed out
When the K.G.B. came on the line.
It`s a cold one, bein` sent down
It`s gotta be fifty below
Mama here`s a postcard to let you know
I`m in a saltmine and looking for coal
Shanghai`d in Shanghai
Stood on in Tuscon
Ripped off and kicked right out the bed
Flyin` across the desert from Texas to Tuscon
But we`re headed for a southern star
The captain says it`s fine in Havana
This dude behind me needs a cigar.
He`s a big one, he`s got a big gun
I guess we better go along
Mister we`ve got a gig in Arizona
Second billing to the Rolling Stones
Shanghai`d in Shanghai
Stood on in Tuscon
Ripped off and kicked right out the bed
Shanghai`d in Shanghai
Laid low in `Frisco
Done in and left behind for dead
