"Blues For Harry Bosch" Lyrics

We got a case boys, she's a dish
A real kisser and deadly
Carrying heat - both kinds
Fahrenheit and Smith & Wesson

From a confidential hideaway lies a city dressed in glare
[Headin' for trouble, dangerous cargo
Miami city, outta Key Largo]
Came a wicked skirt dressed to kill, of a deadly kiss she murders
[Flooded with danger, dead on arrival
Kissing'em double, she's homicidal]
Shouting my words her poison, legal intoxication, gettin' away with murder
[Dead men are heavy of a broken heart]
There's an empty bed on every street, as she mates so does she conquer
[Kissin'em deadly, carryin' red heat
Harry's a target, walkin' the night beat]
Devil got his money's worth that night
Harry fell for the lady in red

[Shalimar, Shalimar]

In the jungle of the city lights, there's a siren hot for crime
[Fatal attraction, doin' the big sleep
Murder for hire, Harry's in too deep]

Shalimar was the venom [venom], gettin' away with murder
[Dead men are heavy of a broken heart]
Good ole Harry lost a bet than night, he was black and blue as ice
[Love'em and leave'em, that was her M.O.
Trouble with Harry, he couldn't say no]
Devil got his money's worth that night
Harry fell for the lady in red

Another dawn crept over the city like it was crawling out of the grave.
Harry was a good gumshoe. It was the one thing the big lug could do.
But where dames were concerned he just couldn't win -
Not even with a pocket full of aces.
