Morgan Street

by Turnpike Troubadours

on Goodbye Normal Street (2012)

Chorus:
Well the movers and shakers down on Morgan Street
Passin out booze tattoos and scars
Dance to anything to with a good backbeat
Drink up the night, close down the bars
Drink up the night, close down the bars

Verse 1:
Long haired Josh got an old New Yorker
A bad drinkin habit has a real good time
Laughin like a kid comin round the corner
Liquor on his breath trouble on your mind

Chorus:
Oh the movers and shakers down on Morgan Street
Passin out booze tattoos and scars
Dance to anything to with a good backbeat
Drink up the night, close down the bars
Drink up the night, close down the bars

Verse 2:
Now Angie shes a mess, tryin to be an actress
Playin out a scene from behind the bar
Said shes had enough of it, gotta to get away from this
Headed to Chicago in a borrowed car

Chorus:
Well the movers and shakers down on Morgan Street
Passin out booze tattoos and scars
Dance to anything to with a good backbeat
Drink up the night, close down the bars
Drink up the night, close down the bars

Verse 3:
Jordan played accordian, dropped out of college
Cookie was a drummer in a punk rock band
Me, Im just a wall flower, soakin up knowledge
My heart on my sleeve, and a beer in my hand
My heart on my sleeve, and a beer in my hand

Chorus:
Well the movers and shakers down on Morgan Street
Passin out booze tattoos and scars
Dance to anything to with a good backbeat
Drink up the night, close down the bars
Drink up the night, close down the bars
