Up The Rusty Lyrics - Singles - The Ripples

Heuser/Pierce 

Up the rusty stairs 

Past the alley's shade 

Kissed the wind with a smile 

And drew its breath away 

She's a little wild 

She's the dawn in May 

And in a little while 

She'll come out and play 

Though the air is still 

That floods the city streets 

Her hair falls out of place 

With her eyes on her feet 

She's a little wild 

She's the dawn in May 

And it's my silent mind 

That's drawn to stay 

And when she raised her chin 

And put her hair in place 

I woke tangled and torn 

And still saw her face 

In a little while 

When my loans are paid 

I'll stuff my pockets deep 

And step out of the shade
