El-A-Noy Lyrics

come you sinners/tread light
remember from where you came
let your body, hollow
forget her singsong name
it doesn't matter/if you love her
just don't leave your shame
in el-a-noy, el-a-noy, el-a-noy
if you can see me/and hear my voice
within these lake bound vines
all down the wabash/rushing past
dead drunk and living time
your stories/are forgotten
your tales unkind
in el-a-noy, el-a-noy
el-a-noy, el-a-noy, el-a-noy

one day i will leave/someday i will go
i won't come back, no
to el-a-noy, el-a-noy
restless children/in our streets
let your love run blind
lay your burdens/at her feet
seek what you must find
in every answer/that beholds you
with every heart aligned
in el-a-noy, el-a-noy, el-a-noy

as a jewel/in her crown
sits chicago town
shining beacon/of a dream
that brought the stars right down
let our skies fill/with steel t**ans
let the dream be ours
in el-a-noy, el-a-noy
el-a-noy, el-a-noy, el-a-noy
one day i will leave/someday i will go
i won't desire so/of el-a-noy, el-a-noy

come you sinners/tread low
leave your past behind
for her winners/dead night
you can stand inside
let your body/be hers now
let your soul unwind
in el-a-noy, el-a-noy
el-a-noy, el-a-noy
el-a-noy
