Deacon Blues-Steely Dan

　　　 Artist：steely dan Songs Title：deacon blues This is the day Of the expanding man That shape is my shade There where I used to stand It seems like only yesterday I gazed through the glass At ramblers Wild gamblers Thats all in the past You call me a fool You say its a crazy scheme This ones for real I already bought the dream So useless to ask me why Throw a kiss and say goodbye Ill make it this time Im ready to cross that fine line Ill learn to work the saxophone Ill play just what I feel Drink scotch whisky all night long And die behind the wheel They got a name for the winners in the world I want a name when I lose They call alabama the crimson tide Call me deacon blues My back to the wall A victim of laughing chance This is for me The essence of true romance Sharing the things we know and love With those of my kind Libations Sensations That stagger the mind I crawl like a viper Through these suburban streets Make love to these women Languid and bittersweet Ill rise when the sun goes down Cover every game in town A world of my own Ill make it my home sweet home This is the night Of the expanding the man I take one last drag As I approach the stand I cried when I wrote this song Sue me if I play too long This brother is free Ill be what I want to be
