Harry's Place

Album: High Hopes (2014)

  • Downtown hipsters drinking up the drug line
    Down in the kitchen working in the coal mine
    Got a special sin, mister, you can't quite confess
    Messy little problem, maybe baby need a new dress
    Razor-back diamond you shine too hard
    Need a hammer help you handle a little trouble in your backyard (bring it on down to Harry's Place)

    When Harry speaks it's Harry's streets, in Harry's house it's Harry's roads
    You don't wanna be around, brother, when Harry scolds
    It's Harry's car, Harry's wife, Harry's dogs run Harry's town
    Your blood and money spit shines Harry's crown
    You don't fuck with Harry's money, you don't fuck Harry's girls
    These are the rules, this is the world

    (You bring it on down to Harry's place)
    (Bring it on down to Harry's place)

    You need a little shot of something, dear, to improve your health
    A taste of that one little weakness you allow yourself
    You're looking for the key of that box you locked yourself in
    Just stood up to the line and be one of Harry's friends

    Shadow on the corner, no light, no sign
    Nobody on the street 'cept the deaf, dumb, and blind
    Now Connor's on the couch, Father McGowan's at the bar
    Chief Horden's at the door checking who the fuck you are

    C saw Bobby dressed in drag and Mr. Nice
    Carry me into a back room and dim the lights
    My arms strapped to the table, a thousand angels spinning up the room
    A voice whispers in my head, "We do what we must do"
    (When we bring it on down to Harry's place)
    (Bring it on down to Harry's place)
    (Bring it on down to Harry's Place)
    (Bring it on down to Harry's place)

    Nobody knows his number, nobody knows his name
    If he didn't exist, it'd all go on just the same
    (Bring it on down to Harry's place)
    (Bring it on down to Harry's place)
    (Bring it on down to Harry's place)
