The Last Request of Elijah Rose

Lyrics
Junkies, punks, and Jezebels Stagger and sashay Up and down the boulevard Through them joints and alleyways And outside the Crazy Chicken Lounge Blood-red neon glows Angelina asked Switchblade Charlie, "Have ya'n seen Elijah Rose?" "I ain't seen him Angie," Switchblade Charlie said "But he best get out of this town, he's in over his pretty head He's been dancing with the devil Stepping on the wrong toes You just save yourself some sorrow Forget Elijah Rose" Angеlina's lips spoke not a word She walked into thе Chicken Lounge Found a table by the bandstand Set her tender young body down Alone there in the violence, amid the dreadlocks and ducktails and afros She listened to Downtown Johnny's guitar, and dreamed of Elijah Rose And like the calm before the storm There was danger all around Downtown Johnny felt it comin' He laid his magic guitar down And all the old-timers swear, the cheap whiskey froze As with a smile on his face and a price on his head In walked Elijah Rose
