| Memories on their minds
|
| They were caught red handed wasting time
|
| Raising boys, they were wild
|
| They were pinching pennies for impatient brides
|
| Damned if they don’t
|
| Oh, they were damned if they do
|
| Damned in time
|
| They would have horns that would not ride
|
| Or make a dime
|
| Neon lights, clear on streets
|
| They were spraining sideways, pooling at their feet
|
| It’s a setting sun, it’s a slackening tide
|
| Should we throw a funeral at the Eagles Dine?
|
| Damned if they don’t
|
| Oh, they were damned if they do
|
| Time to time
|
| They would have horns that would not ride
|
| Maybe that’s all that we can do
|
| With the ladies at home humming their tune
|
| Or make a dime
|
| Damned if they don’t
|
| Oh, they were damned if they do
|
| Time to time
|
| They would have horns that would not ride
|
| Or make a dime
|
| Memories on their minds
|
| Raising boys, they were wild
|
| They were pinching pennies for impatient brides
|
| It’s a setting sun, it’s a slackening tide
|
| Don’t get caught red handed wasting time |
