The Hold Steady First Night Lyrics

Intro:
Charlemagne shakes in the streets
Gideon makes love to the suites
and Holly's not invincible
in fact she's in the hospital
not far from that bar where we met
on that first night
Charlemagne pulls street corner scams
and Gideon's got a pipe made from a Pringles can
Holly's insatiable, she still looks incredible
But she don't look like that same girl we met
on that first night
when she was golden with floorlight and beer
on that first night
she slept like she'd never been scared
Piano Solo
And then last night
She said "Words alone never could save us."
And then last night
She cried and she told us about Jesus
Holly's inconsolable
Unhinged and uncontrollable
'Cause we can't get as high as we got
PAUSE
on that first night
Boys and girls in America x5
Don't bother talking to the guys
with their hot soft eyes
you know they're already taken
Don't even speak to all those sequencer and beats boys
when they kiss they spit white noise (White Noise) x7
Gorgeous song, enjoy.
Johan
