[Verse 1]
On a cold night, in a hotel in New Orleans
Came the final blow, hm-hm-hm
And somehow, somewhere, we lost sight
In our search for that pot of gold
And all that happened, I don't understand
Could somebody here, somebody please explain to me?
'Cause I'm feeling so damn deceived
[Chorus]
And I can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately
Theatre of my soul
Play on, child
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
Ashes to ashes, light the good Lord lays us down
Dust to dust, oh, no
The time has come to lay to rest the years
All the years it took this heart to trust
Maybe too much, too soon, I couldn't get my head on straight
All that worry, just wasted time
Now, it's much too late to save it
[Chorus]
Long forgotten midnight dancer
Plays her final role
The curtain falls and I'm still standing
Theatre of my soul you left in vain
Could someone please explain? And I said
On a cold night, in a hotel in New Orleans
Came the final blow, hm-hm-hm
And somehow, somewhere, we lost sight
In our search for that pot of gold

'Cause I'm feeling so damn deceived

And I can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately
