You accuse me of fancy talk
|
When i'm just trying to find my words
|
You've got a funny way of saying my name
|
Like i just ripped it off
|
|
These whiskey tango ghosts
|
Won't leave us alone
|
But you are too polite to complain
|
Of the art of speaking plain
|
I haven't gathered a thing
|
|
While I know we're dug in deep here
|
Why can't we live high with the wind
|
You're just a freckle away from changing everything
|
I'll make this easy
|
By calling on my gypsy pedigree
|
|
These whiskey tango ghosts
|
Won't leave us alone
|
Of the art of speaking plain
|
I haven't gathered a thing
|
|
While i know we're dug in deep here
|
Why can't we live high with the wind
|
Can't we live
|
|
Of the art of making waves
|
I had my lesson in spades
|
And these ghosts they make it plain
|
They're never going away
|
|
And my ghost she makes it plain
|
I haven't gathered a thing
|
Though I know we're dug in deep here
|
Why can't we live high with the wind
|
Can't we live
|
