On to You

Lyrics

Ooh, oh Ooh, oh Ooh, oh Ooh The architects are choking out another hollow tooth And the rooms have all been rented from the gutter to the roof In the heart of a city desire finds its fuel You go out looking for trouble, sooner or later and the trouble finds you Men walk like pigeons Women all talk loud Skin's a coin of the kingdom Everybody's lonesome And the wild boys say, "I'm on to you." Ooh, oh Ooh, oh Ooh So to hell with the mill sallow chorus Lift your body out of exile Come bend to the outlaw arrow Come let me under you veil They might say love is only trouble We're both too drunk to steer it We may never be angels But we're lousy with the spirit Men walk like pigeons Women all talk loud Skin's a coin of the kingdom Everybody's lonesome And the diamond girls say, "Oh, I'm on to you." And the streets say, "Oh, I'm on to you." And the nights say, "Oh, I'm on to you." And the lovers say, "Oh, I'm on to you." Sha la la la, sha la la la, ooh Sha la la la, sha la la la, ooh Sha la la la, sha la la la, ooh Sha la la la, sha la la la, ooh Sha la la la, sha la la la, ooh Sha la la la, sha la la la, ooh Sha la la la, sha la la la, ooh Sha la la la, sha la la la, ooh And the nights say, "Oh, I'm on to you." And the streets say, "Oh, I'm on to you." And the cities say, "Oh, I'm on to you." And the lovers say, "Oh, I'm on to you." In the fire of my youth We were racing with the sun Kissing in the churchyard I knew a righteous woman Oh, I'm on to you Oh, I'm on to you Sha la la la, sha la la la, ooh
