Northline by Richmond Fontaine Lyrics

We'd meet before work
This skinhead girl
That I used to sleep with
I know it ain't right
But her scarred up white legs
And it was her boyfriend's belief
Well I believed
And her bloodshot blue eyes
Her bloodshot blue eyes

Northline
Asleep somewhere in the back of a Monte Carlo
Her letters turned to postcards
And they never appeared
Northline
Northline
Northline

Northline
Asleep somewhere in the back of a Monte Carlo
Her letters turned to postcards
And they never appeared
Northline
Northline
Northline
Now there's a Mexican radio station
Comin' through the wall
And letters lay on the floor
Signed in hearts and a drawn rose
Maybe he was just addin' weight
Onto her broken back
Maybe he was just addin' weight
To an already broken back
But my justification seemed clear
She was lost and isolation is my biggest fear

Northline
Asleep somewhere in the back of a Monte Carlo
Her letters turned to postcards
And they never appeared
Northline
Northline
Northline
Northline
