"We’re writing about Hollywood in 1969 – but it’s relevant today. We’re touching on money, indebtedness, collapse, war. We had this manager, Larry Spector. He lived on the 31st floor of a condo in Hollywood. He had the most ugly front door with gold plating on it. “The scientists say” was about the threat of an earthquake. “We’ve got our recruits and our green mohair suits, so please show your ID at the door.” Gram wrote that line. It had something to do with him and I going to the Whiskey A Go Go on Sunset Strip. To this day, I’m going, what is he talking about? And the last verse was, of course, about Robert Kennedy. Each verse was a little vignette." Chris Hillman
lyrics
SIN CITY
Gram Parsons and Chris Hillman
This old town's filled with sin it'll swallow you in
If you've got some money to burn
Take it home right away you've got three years to pay
But Satan is waiting his turn
The scientists say it'll all wash away
But we don't believe any more
'Cause we got our recruits and our green mohair suits
So please show your ID at the door
This old earthquake's gonna leave me in the poor house
It seems like this whole town's insane
On the thirty-first floor a gold plated door
Won't keep out the Lord's burning rain
Instrumental
A friend came around tried to clean up this town
His ideas made some people mad
But he trusted his crowd so he spoke right out loud
And they lost the best friend they had
This old earthquake's gonna leave me in the poor house
It seems like this whole town's insane
On the thirty-first floor a gold plated door
Won't keep out the Lord's burning rain
On the thirty-first floor a gold plated door
Won't keep out the Lord's burning rain
