Drunken Poet's Dream
Lyrics:
I got a woman she’s wild as Rome.
She likes to lay naked and be gazed
upon.
She crosses a bridge and then sets it on fire.
Lands like a
bird on a telephone wire.
Wine bottles scattered like last nights
clothes.
Cigarettes, papers, and dominoes.
She laughs for a minute
about the shape I’m in.
Says, “You be the sinner honey, I’ll be the
sin.”
I’m gonna holler and I’m gonna scream,
I’m gonna get me
some mescaline.
She brings me roses and a place to lean,
A drunken
poet's dream.
There’s some money on the table and a pistol on the
floor.
Some old paperback books of Louis L’Amour.
She says,
“Honey, don’t worry ’bout judgement day.”
All these people goin’ to heaven,
they’re just in our way.
I’m gonna holler and I’m gonna scream,
I’m gonna get me some mescaline.
She brings me roses and a place to
lean,
A drunken poet's dream.
And all my life I laid around
while the colors all turned blue.
Closed my eyes and finally found it
brought me back to you.
I got a woman she’s wild as Rome.
She
likes to lay naked and be gazed upon.
She crosses a bridge then sets
it on fire.
Lands like a bird on a telephone wire.
