[00:00:05] Mason-Thomas

[00:00:12] Around the singles bar, playing parlour games

[00:00:23] Marriane plays kiss and run and waves her welcomes again.

[00:00:31] She's way out after dark, painted for the part,

[00:00:40] to steal some young man's week away and rob him of his

[00:00:46] heart.

[00:00:49] To tease the lonelv brute with the dark blue tatoo

[00:00:54] They choose the longer route up to his room

[00:00:58] And leaning an the light, pursuing dirty nights

[00:01:04] and eagle out on bail surveys his nails.

[00:01:08] CHORUS

[00:01:09] Young men gone west for a city roof

[00:01:14] Young men gone west for their gin and vermouth

[00:01:18] Young men gone west, it's young men for the boys

[00:01:23] Leaving the next for their jewels and toys

[00:01:27] Young men gone west from unhappy homes

[00:01:32] Leading the way for the lonely ones.

[00:01:37] Now Harry's lost weekend is trembling to a close,

[00:01:47] He's drowned his dreams in nicotine and pawned his

[00:01:52] overcoat

[00:01:56] He stumbles to the stairs, disturbs a love affair,

[00:02:00] he shuffles as they stare and begs to be elsewhere

[00:02:05] But can he claim a willing ear before they disappear

[00:02:09] He's sure a lover's time worth a dime.

[00:02:14] CHORUS

[00:02:15] Young men gone west into kisses and crime

[00:02:20] Seeing the stairway and wanting to, climb

[00:02:25] Young men gone west for the rodeo, mistaking strangers

[00:02:31] for people they know

[00:02:34] Young men gone west, just wasting their days

[00:02:38] Asking directions and losing their way
