4th of July by X Lyrics

She's waiting for me
When I get home from work
Oh, but things just ain't the same
She turns out the lights
And cries in the dark
And she won't answer when I call her name

[Chorus]
On the stairs I smoke a
Cigarette alone
Mexican kids are shooting
Fireworks below
And hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July
Hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July

She gives me a cheek
When I want her lips
Oh, but I don't have the strength to go
On the lost side of town
In a dark apartment
We gave up trying so long ago
[Chorus]
On the stairs I smoke a
Cigarette alone
Mexican kids are shooting
Fireworks below
And hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July
Hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July

Whatever happened I, uh
Apologize
Dry your tears and, baby
Walk outside
It's the Fourth of July

[Chorus]
On the stairs I smoke a
Cigarette alone
Mexican kids are shooting
Fireworks below
And hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July
Hey baby, baby
Baby, take a walk outside

Hey, baby
Hey, baby
Hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July
Hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July (We forgot!)
We forgot it's the Fourth of July
Hey, babe!
Hey, babe!
Hey!
