James had a look on his face that I couldn't explain He said Man, have you heard the news? Ronnie killed Jackie, caught her screwing around While Hennesey was playing the blues Having sex on the beach and before we could reach Bacardi done blew him away Let the sea breesw blow in the moonlight glow I told ya nuff of what I think you hsould know CHORUS I wish I could fly I, I wish I could fly Fly away now I wish I could fly, fly away Sitting alone in my Manhattan home I got a bottle of wine to drown my pains and sorrows Singapore tune about this love I one knew Margarita's her name Got a gin fizz plan to make some quick fast ends Hold up a bar and get drunk in the get away van Shoot the shooting stars they know who we are I said Mikey that's much too hard CHORUS If I don't know you by now I will never know If I don't know you by now I will never know CHORUS As the sirens roar outside the liquor store Stinger kneeled in cuffs as he started to pray Mary's been shot, she's all covered in blood What could make a man act this way? No golden days, and that's the price he did pay Getting caught up in love with a bottle shape lay Its absolute he was wrong for leaving Johnny behind The brass monkey was dead and Remy was blind CHORUS
