John Pringle- The Avenue
Capo on 4th fret
I bummed a smoke and I drank at a heightened pace
But the bartended just asked for space
About faced and headed towards the door
Raised some hell as I stumbled through the night
Bouncer laid me out with a serious right and said son
Your gonna feel this in the morning
But you stepped right in like a divine wind said
what's wrong with you can't you see that I'm with him
Can't you see he's a little out of touch and out of place
And you grabbed my hand flashed a half cocked grin said boy come with me
I got a place on avenue C
We're gonna clean you up and we'll start our journey
I said I don't think I like what you're trying to do to me
She said boy you have no idea what I have in store for you
And I forfeit my rights to the rest of my life
On the avenue
On the avenue
Yea well fate came through
The night I met you on the avenue
On the avenue
Yea well fate came through the night I met you
Well you gave me a shot said it'll kill the edge
Took me up to a dangerous spot on an eighth floor ledge
You lit a joint and said let's make love like it's high school
And you dropped your close
We struck rodin's pose I searched my mouth for a beautiful prose
But all I could say is damn your one fine woman
She said I don't think I like what your trying to do to me
I said girl you have no idea what I have in store for you
And we forfeit the rights to the rest of our lives
On the avenue
On the avenue
Yea well fate came through
The night I met you on the avenue
On the avenue
Yea well fate came through the night I met you
