Blues For Harry Bosch

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
