Thru the wire (Leningrad Cowboys)

VERSE 1
Funny how the cities always look the same.
Holes in your shoes and caught a tune up, up against the way.
Another cheap hotel, some girl s shoes on the floor,
just once more hopin ,
gonne make it singin , hopin , singin thru the wire.
CHORUS
It s been a long time, it s been a long time, honey,
and your dreams they get old.
This might not be the greatest story ever told,
just one more heart, one more heart comin in from the cold.
VERSE 2
Clock in the market square, chiming twelve o clock.
Somewhere cross the border another car gets stopped.
These uniforms asking questions, papers getting read,
I m feelin half dead thru the wire.
CHORUS
BRIDGE / SOLO

Girls goin out tonight, while I was playin soft.
My body s feelin broken, and I want to turn it off,
but I just keep prayin and playin and singin thru the wire.
CHORUS
SOLO

Waitin , I just keep playin and singin thru the wire.
CHORUS
Thru the wire.
