Idiot kitty to New York City
|
Living in a kennel and lookin' big and pretty
|
Meet the munch for business lunch
|
But your feet bleed under the table
|
|
But Suwannee Jo, you're dark and slow
|
You dance with a broom and you're filled with ghosts
|
You smell like liquor and you're high as a hawk
|
You laugh to yourself but you talk like a rock
|
|
Scaredy Kate, back in the Haight
|
Doesn't answer the phone and eats like a tapeworm
|
She met Mr.Mike in'89
|
But she's a hundred pounds heavier and won't go outside
|
|
But Suwannee Jo, You're dark and slow
|
You dance with a broom and you're filled with ghosts
|
Suwannee Jo, strange beautiful gold,
|
You can take a woman's husband
|
but you don't want to marry him
|
You just want to hold him
|
|
Nora Mable, behind your table
|
Expensive knowledge from ten years of college
|
But when it comes to livin', the book isn't written
|
Your brain's under "M" in the library missing
|
|
Suwannee Jo, you follow your soul
|
(Nothing more important than following your soul)
