Ryan Adams - New York, New York
Acoustic version from Jamaica

Found myself a picture that would fit in the folds
Of my wallet and it stayed pretty good
Still amazed I didn’t lose it on the roof of the place
When I was drunk and I was thinking of you.

— Ryan Adams, New York, New York

Ryan Adams & The Sweetheart Revolution, “Firecracker” (Oct 2001)

I tasted your lips, put my hands on your hips,
Danced in apartment A-9,
Your cats on the sill, and my head to your breast,
Feeding your rhythms divine.

— Ryan Adams, Cannonball Days

They don’t know you and they don’t watch you walk away
Just a nobody girl
With a radar to the scene
When the emptiness finds you
You find all the numbers you need
Say you follow your heart
Well, honey you’re just being lost
Say you follow your gut
Well, how much would it cost?

Ryan Adams, “Firecracker” (live on Jools Holland)

Oh, the night, here it comes again.”
It’s on with the jeans, the jacket and the shirt
How’d I end up feeling so bad
For such a little girl?
And I hold you close in the back of my mind
Feels so good but damn it makes me hurt
And I’m too scared to know to how I feel about you now
La Cienega just smiles and says, “see ya around”
And I hold you close in the back of my mind
And raise my glass ‘cause either way I’m dead
Neither of you really help me to sleep anymore
One breaks my body and the other breaks my soul
La Cienega just smiles as it waves goodbye.

Ryan Adams, “Firecracker”

Well, everybody wants to go on forever
I just wanna burn up hard and bright
I just wanna be your firecracker
And maybe be your baby tonight.
