Spanish Eddie

Charles E. Cochran, David Palmer

There was heat in the air and cops everywhere you looked
There wasn't a lot, so the breaks that you got you know you took
And I remember wonderin' where you'd been
The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in

The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in
They were playing, "Desolation Row" on the radio
The night Spanish Eddie fell from grace
There was amazement on his face
On the night that Eddie failed
Sanity prevailed

It was June or July when the heat from above beat down
It was famine or drought when the brothers went out of style uptown
And we was mixin' Vicks with lemon gin
The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in

The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in
They were playing, "Desolation Row" on the radio
The night Spanish Eddie made front page
His revolution came of age
He wrote, "Surrender" on the wall
The night he took the fall

I heard someone say, "He's trying to fly"
Like Eddie used to say, "We'll do when we die"

I know someone turned you for a fin
The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in

The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in
They were playing, "Desolation Row" on the radio
The night Spanish Eddie fell from grace
There was amazement on his face
On the night that Eddie failed
Sanity prevailed

The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in (Spanish Eddie)
They were playing, "Desolation Row" on the radio
The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in (Spanish Eddie)
They were playing, "Desolation Row" on the radio
The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in (Spanish Eddie)
They were playing, "Desolation Row" on the radio
The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in
