Gaslight Anthem, The - Old White Lincoln Lyrics
If I could write,
I'd tell you how much I've missed these nights
Where we'd dig around the bones
And try to find peace and patches for the holes
The corner boys told her how I was dyin' to meet her
Like a prayer I said on a dead man's knee
You drove up like a parade
You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos,
And your old '55 that you drove through the roof
Of the sky up above these indifferent stars
While you just kept coming apart
You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos,
Of the sky up above these indifferent stars
While you just kept coming apart straight in my arms
Fell straight in my arms
And I miss it sometimes
Shakin' like a leaf on the corner of Vine
But I heard it's alright
The radio spoke to a good friend of mine
And I can feel it comin' up as the night's gettin' warm
I saw your summer dress hangin' on the back of the lawn
Like a dream I remember from an easier time
With the top rolled down on a Saturday night
You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos
And your old '55 that you drove through the roof
Of the sky up above these indifferent stars
While you just kept coming apart
You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos
And your old '55 that you drove through the roof
Of the sky up above these indifferent stars
While you just kept coming apart right in my arms
Right in my arms
And I always dreamed of classic cars and movie screens
And tryin' to find some way to be redeemed
Bring a dollar with you, baby
In the cold, cold ground
You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos
And your old '55 that you drove through the roof
Of the sky up above these indifferent stars
While you just kept coming apart
You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos
And your old '55 that you drove through the roof
Of the sky up above, these indifferent stars
While you just kept coming apart, you fell straight in my arms.
You fell straight in my arms.

Gaslight Anthem, The Old White Lincoln Comments
'59 sound is definately my favourite album, The Backseat, Old Whitem Lincoln, Great Expectations Meet me by the rivers edge and The '59 sound all in one album
Singer's flat.
Still listening in 2019!!!
album yang langka, syang sekali album setelah ini mengalami penurunan kualitas yg signifikan, salam dari indonesia
i love these guys.
HEY BRYAN
Love this song
My dancing
tune, Alexis im waiting xxx
I love Brian's scrappy handwriting <3 gonna have it tattooed soon <3
Brandon Flowers, is that you singing? :P
True dat!
aha thats cute.
alt nation taught me this
yes
Frigging awesome. Seeing them 4 the 3rd time next week in Brighton! Always put on a good show
Met my girlfriend at their Ally Pally gig to this very song. Good memories :)
ReturnDivided Still together? Still fans of Brian Fallon?
Anyone notice the frame from the Don Hertzfeldt film "It's such a beautiful day" at 0:37?
Brian looks A LOT like born to run era Springsteen in this video
great version guys!
such and amazing fucking song
I agree with The Cure comment :) I think that's partially why this band makes me so happy
More importantly: Who are these people who have pressed it?!?
Fallon is probably the coolest dude on the planet.
When I grow up, I want to be Brian Fallon.
Anyone else think he sounds like early Bruce Springsteen?
epic and encore at it's perfect BEST, SIMPLY THE BEST!!!!!!
The guitar and base really reminds me of The Cure.
Get off my lawn, longhair!
These guys are very talented
there's one part in the song, I think it's from 2:18 to 20:30, I want to last forever *-*
same bass line :))
It reminds me of Just Like Heaven...
You mean the "crazy blonde" that he used to race, with her driving an old V-8 White Lincoln, which would always managed to beat him?
Bass line kind of reminds me of Disorder by Joy Division.
he sounds like brandon flowers..except better
all the dislikes were just people who where ment to press like but missed
Makes me smile!!
daily routine
the eptiomy of song
I watch this everyday.
30 people are fucking stupid
I keep trying to find the meaning of these songs, but I just can't pinpoint it. It's like they're not restricted to a single meaning, like each song has an entire heart and soul to itself.
Haha, no worries. I think we all get a little trigger happy when people say inaccurate stuff abotu Brian on the internet, he's had so much trouble with it.
I don't know what I was thinking, it's an LP Jr. in the Great Expectations video. THough lets not get our panties in a knot, it's not exactly a secret what kind of guitars he plays since he posted that gear list a while back and has been praising Nash since before that. Rosamilia played a loaned Jaguar in t59s because his old guitar had broken, played a 3 humbucker les paul that kept screwing up after that, and has played a gibson SG lately (like he played early in the SoS album cycle).
is there a link to a video of it? I really wanna see it.
Good one!
gas light anthem is the best!!! I love them!!! JK they suck
i want to halve my telephone bill
i love this little boys from Jersey!
why have i only just seen this now?
is it physically possible to not like anything by this band.
Best of New Jersey. Best of America. BEST OF THE WORLD!
awesome song
so damn good.
this sounds so much like The Killers!
One of the best bands out there today in my opinion. Brian Fallon talked about the story behind this song in an acoustic version he did, and the way he tells it just puts a smile on your face.
fucking deadley
It's flabbergasting that every one of my peers that I show The Gaslight Anthem to don't like it! What is this world coming to...?
@jrock0077 so yeah...never said i could spell....the second line of my post where it says "or and thing" yeah its supposed to read "or ANY thing" just had to clear that up;).....hugh...i feel better now.
I think there is some sort of mistake... Why is there a dislike button for this song?
and again i raped the replay button xD
it's so fantastic.... The Boss is back :-)
If you don't the like the song or band, don't talk smack. Or don't even comment. Better yet, don't watch the video!!!!! I personally, love this song!
This song is a crossbreed between The Cure "In Between Days" sung by Brandon Flowers backed by the E-Street Band. As Homer says "Bo-ring."
@iheartnobody The singer's voice is eerily similar to Brandon Flowers. It pretty obv.
@JoeCore6 A classic fender telecaster (check out the video for the 59 sound for a closer look). He also plays a fender jazzman (IE, the great expectations video) and at most of the recent live shows he's played a les paul.
@iheartnobody I definitely agree that TGA beats the killers, but they reflect each other in the sense that (unlike other modern bands) they write LYRICS. But brian is much better than brandon flowers, and much easier to get along with.
@ExtraWedgie Seattle, WA on September 13th!!!!!! gonna rock!! You should go to the Seattle show too!
@Nitros65 The Killers are just popular right now. Not the best.
I need them to come to Canada one of these days! anywhere on the east coast and id be there in a split second
fuck the killers!!!!
@evilnarc The killers are more popular, not better.
Where's Silent Bob?
talent goes to Gaslight Anthem
development of sound goes to the Killers
both are mindblowaszzz
The Killers are better though. But these guys are amazing.
@sarah14i Their new album is amazing.....if you haven't picked up American Slang you definitely should.
I like this 59 sound album, but I also like their new stuff =)
Perfect for THE SOPRANOS!!
one of my all time fav tracks. never grows old. love it!
@cosmowiz Perhaps a book that is a few too many reading levels out of your reach. :( No worries, here's this copy of Everyone Poops. Once you grasp this basic principle, you can go on to see the bigger picture of Gaslight Anthem shitting all over The Killers.

re:negitive comments,...create some kind of music, art, media and have it be judged, see how brave you are
lol yet another hater
@MToddster so true
sweet!!!one of my best of 2009XD
yes i am a bitch because these guys blow - makes total sense --face it -its weak
I still can not see the comparision to The Killers.
But TGA is the perfect band to listen to when you think music has been downgreaded to crap like Ke$ha and the like.
awesome :D
Brilliant
i dont hear bruce's voice
Is Springsteen doing the voice over ??
heard this song for the first time tonight, blew me away.....i hear a springsteen voice, the cure's guitars and bass, and travis barker's punchy drumming.....into a sound i've not heard yet......nice job guys this song is fucking sweet.....
these guys still suck
these guys blow this is homo music - knuckle up you bitches
everything was better alright, except you wouldnt get to watch this video or post comments about it
finally a story teller again, just like bruce
