Lyrics

[Verse 1]

A race of angels bound with one another

A dish of dollars laid out for all to see

A tower room at Eden Rock

His golf at noon for free

Brooklyn owes the charmer under me

Brooklyn owes the charmer under me

[Verse 2]

His lady's achin' to bring a body down

She daily preaches on where she wants to be

An evening with a movie queen

A face we all have seen

Brooklyn owes the charmer under me

Brooklyn owes the charmer under me

[Verse 3]

A case of Aces done up loose for dealin'

A piece of island cooling in the sea

The whole of time we gain or lose

And power enough to choose

Brooklyn owes the charmer under me

Mm, Brooklyn owes the charmer under me

[Verse 4]

Yeah

Brooklyn owes the charmer under me

Brooklyn owes the charmer under me
