Redbone - Speakeasy lyrics

Night gave way and darkness fell On the rivers of the man in white Love benign, from place to place To the rythm of the train in Hell Holding out their hands Though hate denied them Piercing all the way To where I feel Speakeasy, unfriendly Here in no where So far away from home Speakeasy, where are you now Oh, I wish I knew, I wish I knew Four young men, three red and brown In the belly of a great white bird Something lonely through the skin In the kingdom of her majesty Singing through my soul I sought to touch them Even though they took me For a fool Speakeasy, unfriendly Here in no where So far away from home Speakeasy, where are you now Oh, I wish I knew, I wish I knew Murmurings in foreign tongue When they thought I couldn't understand Smiling through their fear for real For the faces of the living sob Lacking was the honesty for reason Seing what it was Just made me cry Speakeasy, unfriendly Here in no where So far away from home Speakeasy, where are you now Oh, I wish I knew, I wish I knew
