WEST VILLAGE BLUES
By Joe Kinosian

There lies a neighborhood between the Hudson and Sixth Avenue
Between 14th and Houston Street.
We used to walk its village green.
Have tea for two at Manatus
Until our love found its defeat.
You ruined that neighborhood for me.

I got the old west villages blues,
Can't set foot on Leroy or Bank or Bleeker without you.
Someday they'll, they'll be good news.
Til then you've got your old west village address.
And I got the blues.

Keep your biography my sweet
Don't care for books or clothes or porn,
Don't want magnolia tonight.
Climb into bed turn down the lights,
You're in the place I want to be.
You ruined that neighborhood for me.

I got the old west villages blues,
Can't set foot on Jones, St. Lukes or Commerce without you.
Someday they'll be good news.
Til then you've got your old west village address,
And I got the blues.

You ruined Bethune!
And West 11th!
And its scary, I can't go down Perry,
Or Charles or Gay and oh the pain!
Jane
You remember we were gonna have a house on Jane.
Now we ain't, and I'm frownin.
I'm frownin cuz I can't go down Downing.
Carmine could be all mine, and Minetta might get better,
First I gotta rid my heart of this arrow.
Which is why I really ought to stay off of Barrow.
And Jane, Sweet Jane!
We were gonna have a house on Jane.
Now we ain't.
So you see you ruined every bump and every beat,
Every bar and every street for me.

There lies a neighborhood between the Hudson and Sixth Avenue
Between 14th and Houston Street.
You ruined that neighborhood for me.

I got the blues!
Oh yea, oh yea, yea
And i got the blues.
