[Verse 1]
Sally, you opened out your arms
To all those young men
And girl, you had room for every one of them
You're the only girl on Bowery and Third
Sure as hell you're the only one who cared
[Chorus]
So put your hands together for Sally
She saved all those young men
Put your hands together for Sally
She's the one who cared for them
She's doing our dirty work
She's the only one who cares
Doing our dirty work
Thirsty world one angry day, in New York
[Verse 2]
Take a look at Dave, he was once seventeen
Zoot suit and shiny shoes
He ran around town and through his methylated laughter
Most of his memories drowned
But he remembers what his mommy used to shout
She used to shout
"One day surely, son
The streets are gonna tire you out"
