Atlantic City

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, they blew up the chicken man in Philly last night Now they blew up his house, too Down on the boardwalk, they're gettin' ready for a fight Gonna see what them racket boys can do [Verse 2] Now there's trouble busin' in from out of state And the D.A. can't get no relief Gonna be a rumble out on the promenade And the gambling commission's hangin' on by the skin of its teeth [Chorus] Well now, everything dies, baby, that's a fact But maybe everything that dies someday comes back Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty And meet me tonight in Atlantic City [Verse 3] Well, I got a job, tried to put my money away But I got debts no honest man could pay So I drew what I had from the Central Trust And bought us two tickets on that City Coast bus [Chorus] Well now, everything dies, baby, that's a fact But maybe everything that dies someday comes back Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty And meet me tonight in Atlantic City [Fiddle Solo] [Bridge] Now our luck may have died and our love may be cold But with you forever I'll stay We're goin' out where the sand's turnin' to gold So put on your stockings, baby, it's gettin' cold [Chorus] And everything dies, baby, that's a fact But maybe everything that dies someday comes back Put your hair up nice and set up pretty And meet me tonight in Atlantic City [Outro] Meet me tonight in Atlantic City Meet me tonight in Atlantic City Meet me tonight in Atlantic City
