Grant Hart The Main lyrics

Well it sinks to the bottom or floats to the top
I avoided policemen when I went to cop
She sang one two three, one two three - come get it now
And I took just as much as my brass would allow

Chorus:
On the main, the main, remember your name,
Remember the things you and I became
Reeperbahn, Christiania, Pigalle, all the same
On the main, the main, remember your name

She was so crucified by the end of the day
With her head in her hands she decided to pray

Jesus Christ topped the list of the most wanted souls
Like DeQuincey he died with his arms full of holes

Chorus

I was smack in the middle of alphabet town
There was life on the corners and death all around
You know hell is the worst place that I've ever been to
The hell that I've been through but I stuck it into
