Lyrics:
It was three in the morning when she took me apart
She wrecked the furniture, she wrecked my heart
She danced on my head like Arthur Murray
playing checkers by the trees
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
love
In a grave caused by jealousy
Here lies love
In a grave caused by jealousy
Hate was a pall bearer
And on the tombstone was written misery
It was
vocals)
Ed mann (percussion)
Arthur barrow (bass, vocals)
Vinnie colaiuta (drums)
Ain't got no heart
I ain't got no heart to give away
I sit and laugh
Claude said "I am justified Jim, they were gonna cut me down,
And a man's got a right to hang some meat
When he's livin' this far from town."
It took
the first chance
To put things right
Moving on
Guided by the light
And the spirit of love
Is rising within me
Talking to you now
Telling you clearly
another dream for me
Someone will bring it
I will drink the wine while it is warm
And never let you catch me looking at the sun
And after all the loves
playing checkers by the trees
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
Arthur I love you
Though you've got B.O.
And you trainers are dirty
and your brains rather slow
And Arthur I love you
Though you read The Sun
for these
And I got a loved one who loves me
Kids to make my cares hurry by
I may not be in heaven but I can't be far away
A son of God's country am I
for the lion's share
Give me the lion's share
Work that back for the lion's share
Work that back for the lion's share
They both got lost, love in
(Arthur Blake, adapted by Ry Cooder)
All my life I've been a travellin' man
All my life I've been a travellin' man
Stayin' alone and doing the best
(love me)?
Keep it a hundred, I'd rather you trust me than to (love me)
Keep it a whole one hund', don't got you I got nothin' (oh, oh)
Give me a run
another dream for me
Someone will bring it
I will drink the wine while it is warm
And never let you catch me looking at the sun
And after all the loves
got to hide your love away
Hey! (*Laughter*) You've got to hide your love away
(Hey hey.)
How can I even try?
I can never win
Hear them, see them
It was three in the morning when she took me apart
She wrecked the furniture, she wrecked my heart
She danced on my head like Arthur Murray
tender babies in your hands
And the old men playing
Checkers by the trees
MacArthur Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing
another dream for me
Someone will bring it
I will drink the wine while it is warm
And never let you catch me looking at the sun
And after all the loves
to pass the time
And smile a while and by the time the dance is through
There might be some love for us to find
There might be some love for you and me
got carrots like Bugs Bunny
Memphis nigga overpaid, you can call me Mike Conley
I say I did it then I done it
Nigga, you can call me Donnie
Count my
the first chance
To put things right
Moving on
Guided by the light
And the spirit of love
Is rising within me
Talking to you now
Telling you clearly
I know one plus one equals two
And it's me and you
That's all we'll have when the world is through
'Cause baby, we ain't got nothing without love
It was three in the morning when she took me apart
She wrecked the furniture, she wrecked my heart
She danced on my head like Arthur Murray
The scars
heart, dear heart
Work out, vinnie
Tell me, tell me what's the reason
Dear heart, dear heart
I thought you were in love, vinnie
Tell me, tell me what's
