|
Words and music by tom waits |
|
Let's put a new coat of paint |
|
On this lonesome old town |
|
Set 'em up, set 'em up we'll be knockin' 'em down |
|
You wear a dress babe, i'll wear a tie |
|
We'll laugh at that old bloodshot moon |
|
In that burgundy sky |
|
All our scribbled love dreams |
|
Lost or thrown away |
|
Never miss the shuffle on an overflowin' day |
|
When love needs a transfusion |
|
Shoot it full of wine |
|
Fishin' for a good time |
|
Starts with throwin' in your line |
|
Let's put a new coat of paint |
|
On this lonesome old town |
|
Set 'em up, set 'em up we'll be knockin' 'em down |
|
You wear a dress babe, i'll wear a tie |
|
We'll laugh at that old bloodshot moon |
|
In that burgundy sky |
