Well, they blew up The Chicken Man in Philly last night
Now they blew up his house, too
Down on the boardwalk, they're getting ready for a fight
Gonna see what those racket boys can do
Now there's trouble busing in from out of state
And the DA can't get no relief
Gonna be a rumble out on the promenade
And the gambling commission's hanging on by the skin of its teeth
Well now, everything dies, baby, that's a fact
But maybe everything that dies someday comes back
Put your make-up on, fix your hair up pretty
And meet me tonight in Atlantic City
I got a job and tried to put my money away
But I got debts that no honest man can pay
Drew what I had from the Central Trust
And I bought us two tickets on that Coast City bus
Well now, everything dies, baby, that's a fact
But maybe everything that dies someday comes back
Put your make-up on, fix your hair up pretty
And meet me tonight in Atlantic City
ย
Now our luck may have died, and our love may be cold
But with you forever, I'll stay
We're going out where the sand's turning to gold
Put on your stockings, baby, the night's getting cold
Maybe everything dies, baby, that's a fact
But maybe everything that dies someday comes back
ย
Been looking for a job, but it's hard to find
Down here, it's just winners and losers
And don't get caught on the wrong side of that line
Well, I'm tired of coming out on the losing end
So, last night I met this guy
And I'm gonna do a little favor for him
Everything dies, baby, that's a fact
But maybe everything that dies someday comes back
Put your make-up on, fix your hair up pretty
And meet me tonight in Atlantic City
Come on and meet me tonight in Atlantic City
Come on and meet me tonight in Atlantic City
