Ballad Of The Lower East Side

Michael Monroe

Now it's squeaky clean, there's no place left to stay. INTRO, DRUMS: | | | | | BAND IN: | | Things are different today back in New York. I lived down on third street way back in that day. There were junkies, pimps and whores. Hallelujah! Now it's squeaky clean, there's no place left to stay. | | verse 1: I remember well the streets and all that smell.

SOLO, GUITAR: | | | | | | | | | | verse 2: It was such a perfect mess, what they call the L.E.S. Life was odd on every corner, but now there is so much less. That's why I find talk is square. They ask me if a care. Gimme back that Apple In Decay! (Let's go!) Chorus:
