Generate meaning
1
When the hawk's in the kitchen and the sirens in bloom
2
And the losers have been swept from the gin mills
3
Hello sucker, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
4
34th Street good tidings to you
5
And will you meet me in Paradise Alley tonight
6
We'll leave town in a bottle of whiskey
7
And come on, you old scarecrow, and be a wheel, not a lamppost
8
Just put a saddle on a wishbone, and you're halfway there
9
You know, the heroes will wait where their dreams used to be
10
Go on and ask the hooligans as they sweep down the midway
11
I'm going waltzing tonight with the Statue of Liberty
12
And come on, you old lazy-bones, let's get out of this place
13
Will you meet me in Paradise Alley tonight
14
We'll leave town in a bottle of whiskey
15
And come on, you old scarecrow, and be a wheel, not a lamppost
16
Just put a saddle on a wishbone, and you're halfway there
17
Now there's a counterfeit moon, and I'm seeing right through it
18
Cause the dawn spent it all in one place
19
And we'll rise to the top of the morning tonight
20
You can ride on my shoulders, and I'll show you the way
21
If you meet me in Paradise Alley tonight
22
We'll leave town in a bottle of whiskey
23
So come on, you old scarecrow, and be a wheel, not a lamppost
24
Just put a saddle on a wishbone, and you're halfway there
