Paroles: Patti Scialfa. 23rd Street Lullaby. Stumbling To Bethlehem.

I was doing time in Salvation Park
up on the high rope me your ace of hearts
just when I thought I was so special
I thought I had it all
you take a wrong step
before you fall and you're

Stumbling to Bethlehem
in this absence of light
stumbling to Bethlehem
don't worry darling
yeah don't think twice

Now there's this man on the corner
in a long black sweater saying
?sinners they will burn forever?
well I must be guilty of something
some price I forgot to pay
I must have done somebody wrong
somewhere along the way
that keeps me

Stumbling to Bethlehem
in this absence of light
stumbling to Bethlehem
don't worry darling
yeah don't think twice

now you can count up all your blessings
you can count up every curse
but you never really know
which is better
or which is worse
so you try to do right
but it gets so rough
there's always someone
to remind you
that you're just not good enough
and you're

Stumbling to Bethlehem
in this absence of light
I'm stumbling to Bethlehem
don't worry darling
yeah don't feel twice
don't worry darling
yeah it's alright
