Generate meaning
1
She lives in a house
2
That's way back off the road
3
There's a man with a lantern
4
And he carries her soul
5
A coal stove and a bed
6
A skillet and a hound
7
She drove a camel through
8
A needle
9
In this sinking board walk town
10
She's my Black Market Baby
11
She's my Black Market Baby
12
She's a diamond that
13
Wants to stay coal
14
Wants to stay coal
15
I swang out wide with her
16
On hells iron gate
17
Anything that you wanted
18
You could have
19
My eyes say their prayers to her
20
Sailors ring her bell
21
Like a moth mistakes a light bulb
22
For the moon and goes to hell
23
She's my Black Market Baby
24
She's my Black Market Baby
25
She's a diamond that
26
Wants to stay coal
27
Wants to stay coal
28
There's no prayer like desire
29
There's amnesia in her kiss
30
She's a swan and a pistol
31
And she will follow you like this
32
In Moverly, Missouri at the
33
Iroquois Hotel
34
She checked in with the President
35
And she ran up quite a Bill
36
(Chorus)
37
She's whiskey in a teacup
38
She gives blondes a lousy name
39
She's a Bonzai Aphrodite
40
And a ticket back to Spain
41
She's a hard way to go
42
And there ain't no way
43
To stop
44
Every time you play the red
45
The black is coming up
46
She's my Black Market baby
47
She's my Black Market baby
48
She's a diamond that
49
Wants to stay coal
50
Wants to stay coal
