Stay Lucky Lyrics - American Slang - The Gaslight Anthem

It took so long to get me back on my feet 

It takes so long to find the words and the beat 

And Charlie's waiting on the end of the phone 

To hear you call on him to try to recapture 

But them old records won't be saving your soul 

And them feelings died for reasons, you know 

That you've forgotten somewhere riding the train 

To a place you bought out in the Coca 

And it feels like all you'd have to do is step outside 

Stop pacing around and waiting for some moment that might never arrive 

But you're never gonna find it 

Like when you were young and everybody used to call you Lucky 

Nothing feels right in the winter and cold 

Steam, heat, clang and the dark at your door 

All the other rooms are a party tonight 

And you never got an invitation

And you feel it in your bones, steady aching some more 

Twenty-five years gone about an hour ago 

Mama never told me there'd be days like these 

Till it was much too late to recover 

And it feels like all you'd have to do is step outside 

Stop pacing around and waiting for some moment that might never arrive 

But you're never gonna find it 

When your knees, they got so weak 

But it's right here in case you need it 

Like when you were young and everybody used to call you Lucky 

When you were young and everybody used to call you Lucky 

But it feels like you just might explode inside 

You've been pacing around and waiting for some moment that might never arrive at all 

What you don't have, you don't need it anymore 

What you don't have, you don't need it anymore

But you're never gonna find it 

When your knees, they got so weak 

But it's right here in case you need it 

Like when you were young and everybody used to call you Lucky 

When you were young, when everybody used to call you Lucky 

If you're anywhere in Manhattan in the next eight days or so, let me know 

Speak soon, stay lucky
