Lust And Love

Stray Cats


The wind is blowin' beercans down a cold deserted street 
I feel as empty as those beercans rollin' past my feet 
I can hear Chicago blues from an out of tune guitar 
And a 1939 neon sign buzzin' above the bar 

I'm at an intersection lost my direction and 
I don't know which way to go 
She left me on the corner of lust and love 
Left me on the corner of lust and love 
Left me on the corner of lust and love 
She left me on the corner of lust and love 

I got an old tattoo dedicated to you covered up with thorns 
But the heart bleeds through and your name does too forever on my arm 
Each night I go walkin' through the darkness all alone 
But I never get of that dirty old street no matter how far I roam 

I'm at an intersection lost my direction and 
I don't know which way to go 
She left me on the corner of lust and love 
Left me on the corner of lust and love 
Left me on the corner of lust and love 
She left me on the corner of lust and love 

Underneath the street light I strain my eyes to see 
The silhouettes reflection of a long black mercury 
Shadows on the pavement from the corners of my eye 
Fool me into thinkin' my baby's passin' by 

Intersection lost my direction and 
I don't know which way to go 
You're the only one I've been thinking of 
Left me on the corner of lust and love 
Left me on the corner of lust and love 
She left me on the corner of lust and love 
Left me on the corner of lust and love 
Left me on the corner of lust and love
