Gaslight Anthem The Queen Of Lower Chelsea lyrics

Did you grow up lonesome and one of a kind?
Were your records all you had to pass the time
Or maybe you were taken by the mysteries of New Orleans
Or the uptight rowdy girls of Lower Chelsea?

And we're hustling London but we live in the city
And we keep it down when we take a beating
Yeah, we keep it down with the radio on
And if you find a good man, don't take him home

When you're working full-time
And spending all of your nights, dancing like you did
While the gravity hangs all over some boys you had
She'll still remain the Queen of Lower Chelsea

Did you grow up a good girl, your daddy's pride?
Did you make all the right moves
Take all the right drugs right on time?
American girls, they want the whole world
They want every last little life in New York City

But we're hustling London and we're fast asleep
And we keep it down when we take a beating
Yeah, we keep it down with the radio on

And if you find a good man, don't take him home

When you're working full-time
And spending all of your nights, dancing like you did
While the gravity hangs all over some boys you had
She'll still remain the Queen of Lower Chelsea

Well, they say these days, nothing comes cheap
And everything has a price, everyone has a price
Nothing is free, not even me

When you're working full-time
And spending all of your nights dancing like you did
While the gravity hangs all over some boys you had
She'll still remain the Queen

When you're working full-time
And spending all of your nights, dancing like you used to
While the gravity hangs all over some boys you had
She'll still remain the Queen of Lower Chelsea
