Queen of the City

If I wrote it in your letter then it don't mean shit
 I am a liar, a dirty wire
 You could name my body but it'll make you sick
 You have a savior it's your heart of anger
 But my dog ain't nothin', he ain't nothin' like my lover
 Ain't nothin' like my lover at all
 He will sit upon my shoulder, let the dark day cover
 The dark day cover me up
 I've got two half dollars underneath my bed
 One for my baby, one for the lady
 On the sixth floor found me when my mind was dead
 Buy what they tell you but I'm here to save you
 But my dog ain't nothin', he ain't nothin' like my lover
 Ain't nothin' like my lover at all
 He will sit upon my shoulder, let the dark day cover
 The dark day cover me up
 I heard a lady singing,
 "We're all bound together!"
 La-lala-la la!
 I joined her side by saying,
 "To dance beneath the heavens!"
 La-lala-la la!
 Christ, your mother's hanging on my bedroom door
 I'll bet she's pretty, Queen of the City
 If you burn all sinners I could join your corp.
 And sing HOLY, HOLY till my day of glory
 But my Lord ain't nothin', you ain't nothin' like my lover
 Ain't nothin' like my lover at all
 You could sit upon my shoulder, let the dark day cover
 The dark day cover me up
