To Her Door |
They got married early |
Never had no money |
Then when he got laid off |
They really hit the skids |
He started up his drinking |
Then they started fighting |
He took it pretty badly |
She took both the kids |
She said «I'm not standing by |
To watch you slowly die |
So watch me walking out the door, out the door, out the door |
She said, «Shove it Jack |
I’m walking out the fucking door» |
She went to her brother’s |
Got a little bar work |
He went to the buttery |
Stayed about a year |
Then he wrote a letter |
Said, «I want to see you» |
She thought he sounded better |
She sent him the fare |
He was riding through the cane |
In the pouring rain |
On Olympic to her door |
And his heart was singing like a lowdown guitar |
He came in on a Sunday |
Every muscle aching |
Walking in slow motion |
Like he’d just been hit |
Did they have a future? |
Would he know his children? |
Could he make a picture |
And get them all to fit? |
He was shaking in his seat |
Riding through the streets |
In a Silvertop to her door |
…shaking in his seat |
Riding through the streets |
In a Silvertop to her door, to her door, to her door |
