Jockey Full Of Bourbon Lyrics
Artist: Tom Waits
Album: Rain Dogs
Edna Million in a drop dead suit Dutch Pink on a downtown train two dollar pistol but the gun won't shoot I'm in the corner in the pouring rain 16 men on a deadman's chest and I've been drinking from a broken cup 2 pair of pants and a mohair vest I'm full of bourbon; I can't stand up
Chorus: Hey little bird, fly away home your house is on fire; your children are alone Hey little bird, fly away home your house is on fire; your children are alone
Schiffer broke a bottle on Morgan's head and I've been stepping on the Devil's tail across the stripes of a full moon's head through the bars of a cuban jail bloody fingers on a purple knife a flamingo drinking from a cocktail glass I'm on the lawn with someone else's wife come admire the view from up onto of the mast
Chorus
Yellow sheets in a Hong Kong bed Stazybo horn and a Slingerland ride to the carnival is what she said a hundred dollars makes it dark inside
Repeat first verse and Chorus
