Gutterball One By One Lyrics

One By One Lyrics

well, the Knicks lost big to Cleveland

at the Garden Friday night

so
I wandered down Eight Avenue 

to get a little tight

got into a
little scuffle all because of Willis Reed

now there's one more bar in New
York 

I can't get me what I need



one by one, the doors are
closing

one by one, they're shutting down

one by one, the word is
spreading

one by one, all over town

one by one, my many options

one by one, they're falling down

dropping off like flies

one by
one



well, I had a job last summer writing copy for the Post

the hours were a bummer,

the pay was worse than most

missed a
couple deadlines and I got the bum's rush

another golden opportunity
turned to mush



ch.



well, I spent my last ten dollars
on a longshot at the track

hit on the exacta, I got 700 back

now my
rent is paid, I've got some groceries and some wine

one by one, it all is
working out

everything is fine
