Passport to Detroit
Joe Strummer
The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
In Hong Kong city At a chowder stand down from Kowloon Met a junkie into syncronicity He'd made all the phases of the spoon He said mister I am able To map the Cairo water table But nowhere on my charts Does it say how to mend a heart In old Genoa Behind some dump truck driver's door There as a lady who was dressed up Like Marlene before the war Opinion held that she was ice Oh but you could glimpse paradise If you leaned close in the dark And you told her how to mend a heart Wait for all the lights, All the lights in town to go out, Avoid looking in the mirror Turn the car and go south Follow the Pole Star Until she changes her petticoat Check into a desert motel And let the dam in the waters go broke Some nameless project Out by the twentieth zone We got a leaper gonna jump for it He's paid about all he was owing He said I'm telling you the truth I would not be on this roof If I hadn't seen some kissing in the park Or known how to mend a heart.
