Lyrics
You told me not to try and search for you
But something drags me down the street just like a fool
The horns they blow won't bring down Jericho's walls
And you won't find no gold in these dirty halls
Lovin' you makes no more sense than drinkin' beer on Bourbon Street
They make you stand up here and then you take a fall
You can dance and sing la-de-da
And most of the bets say you won't find what you're looking for
I hear the rain falls most every day
The kind you used to stop from fallin' on me
The horns they blow won't bring down Jericho's walls
And you won't find no gold in these dirty halls
Lovin' you makes no more sense than drinkin' beer on Bourbon Street
The blues they sing won't bring you happiness
Gimme one more chance to show you what you left
And most the bets say I won't find who I'm lookin' for
Baby, baby won't you come back to me
And leave behind the dirty streets you've seen
The horns they blow won't bring down Jericho's walls
And you won't find no gold in these dirty halls
Lovin' you makes no more sense than drinkin' beer on Bourbon Street
