Sunset Grill

                                  Let's go down to the Sunset Grill 

We can watch the working girls go by 

Watch the "basket people" walk around and mumble 

And stare out at the auburn sky 

There's an old man there from the old world 

To him, it's all the same 

Calls all his customers by name



[Chorus] 

Down at the Sunset Grill 

Down at the Sunset Grill 

Down at the Sunset Grill 

Down at the Sunset Grill 



You see a lot more meanness in the city 

It's the kind that eats you up inside 

Hard to come away with anything that feels like dignity 

Hard to get home with any pride 

These days a man makes you somethin' 

And you never see his face 

But there is no hiding place 



[Chorus]



Respectable little murders pay 

They get more respectable every day 

Don't worry girl, I'm gonna stick by you 

And someday soon we're gonna get in that 

Car and get outta here 



Let's go down to the Sunset Grill 

Watch the working girls go by 

Watch the "basket people" walk around and mumble 

Gaze out at the auburn sky 

Maybe we'll leave come springtime 

Meanwhile, have another beer 

What would we do without all these jerks anyway? 

And besides, all our friends are here 



[Chorus]
