Scotch And Water Blues |
| I’ve held your hand and sunk your ships |
| And I can read our future in the whiskey on your lips |
| Watch this ice a-melting; |
| cool glass magnify my palms |
| And from the church on sunday evening comes the sifted sound of psalms |
| Things they go and then come around to stops |
| Now my baby’s just a breeze through the treetops |
| Glass in my hand, my back to the door |
| My one consolation is I ain’t your man anymore |
| The drop |
| Oh, I worry just about the drop |
| Oh, I worry just about the drop |
| 'cause it’s not the fall that kills you |
| But, the sudden stop |
| Machiavelli on the door |
| The shogun dropped his chopsticks in the bowl |
| Oh, you might get past her, but you never pay the toll |
| I’m flippin' from left to right |
| Oh, I’m flippin' like a moth to light |
| I could never ask your baby |
| I’ll wish for you tonight |
| I’ll wish for you |
| I worry just about the drop |
| I worry about the drop |
| 'cause it’s not the fall that kills you |
| It’s that sudden stop |
| That sudden stop, now |
| Is she alligator |
| Yeah, she’s a crocodile |
| She got that ancient? |
| That’s just hanging out of her smile |
| When she called you at the keyhole, brother |
| She knew it all the while |
| Oh, I worry just about the drop |
| Oh, I worry (I'm so worried, mama) about the drop |
| 'cause it’s not the fall that kills you |
| But that sudden stop |
