(T. Waits)
|
|
Let's put a new coat of paint
|
On this lonesome ol' town
|
Set 'em up
|
I'll be knockin' 'em down, down, down
|
You wear a dress, baby
|
I'll put on my tie
|
We'll laugh at that old bloodshot moon
|
In a burgundy sky
|
|
All our scribbled love dreams
|
Are lost or thrown away
|
Here amid the shuffle
|
Of an overflowing day
|
Love needs a transfusion
|
Let's shoot it full of wine
|
Fishin' for a good time
|
Starts with throwin' in your line
|
|
Put a new coat of paint, baby
|
On this lonesome ol' town
|
Set 'em up, set 'em up
|
I'll be knockin' 'em down,
|
You wear your dress, baby
|
I'll root out my old tie
|
We'll laugh at that bloodshot moon
|
Up in that burgundy sky
|
|
Yes, we will
|
Laugh laugh laugh laugh
|
Come on, come on, come on, come on
