Doin' The Things That We Want To - Lou Reed

作词：Lou Reed

作曲：Lou Reed

The other night we went to see Sam's play

Doin' the things that we want to

It was very physical it held you to the stage

Doin' the things that he wants to

Doin' the things that he wants to

The guy's a cowboy from some rodeo

Doin' the things that he wants to

The girl had once loved him

but now she want to go

Doin' the things that she wants to

Doin' the things that she wants to

The man was bullish

the woman was a tease

Doin' the things that they want to

They fought with their words

their bodies and their deeds

Doin' the things that they want to

When they finished fighting

they exited the stage

Doin' the things that they want to

I was firmly struck by the way

they had behaved

Doin' the things that they want to

Doin' the things that they want to

It reminds me of the movies Marty

made about New York

Doin' the things that he wants to

Those frank and brutal movies

that are so brilliant

Doin' the things that he wants to

True Love meet The Raging Bull

Doin' the things that he wants to

They're very inspirational

I love the things they do

Doin' the things that he wants to

Doin' the things that I want to

There's not much you hear

on the radio today

Doin' the things that we want to

But you could still see a movie or a play

Doin' the things that we want to

Here's Travis Bickle

and here's to Johnny Boy

Doin' the things that we want to

Growing up in

the Mean Streets of New York

Doin' the things that we want to

I wrote this song

'cause I'd like to shake your hand

Doin' the things that we want to

In a way you guys are

the best friends I ever had

Doin' the things that we want to

Doin' the things that we want to

That we want to

A true love
