Jody Miller - Manhattan Kansas слова песни
Manhattan Kansas ain`t no place to have a babyWhen you got no man to give it his last nameAnd her folks back in Manhattan didn`t treat her like a ladySo she took her child and caught an evening trainShe found a job in Denver washing dishes in a dinerAt least it buys her baby milk to drinkHe once told her she was pretty but the only ring it got herIs the ring of grease that runs around the sinkYes she laid beside him gentle cause he told her that he loved herAnd he made her dance before the music playedBut at least she`s not a beggar she rather wash her dishesIt makes her feel as if her hands`re cleanAt night she stands there thinkin` bout the men back home in KansasAnd how men happen made up feel ashamedShe stares down through the soap suds reaches down and pulls the drain plugAnd watches as Manhattan drains awayYes she laid beside him gentle...Manhattan Kansas ain`t no place...
