lyrics

Her eyes shine with lunacy or Laudanum,
Our days pass with violence and boredom.
I would give my right arm for a dose of normality.

Its crazy by breakfast and madness by two,
Made the bed, dodged a bullet, walked the dog, had you.
Our lives seem to dance somewhere between heaven and hell.

Queenie, your fly just like Peter Pan,
Make love like Polly Adler can.
But Queenie, you smile just like your ship came in,
Bet more than we could ever win.

I love the fact my charm is wasted on you,
Walking round the bedroom like the ‘Wandering Jew’.
This aint the second coming, I aint another drop to give

Set it in stone sign the deal,
Get me the hell off of this here wagon wheel.
Do any thing baby but never hang that gilt on me.

But Queenie, you talk with the Devils tongue,
Swings just like Joe Lewis done.
But Queenie, you pound like John Henry did,
You cried like your Mamma said.

We argue over supper and dance until three,
This extreme way of life is gonna crucify me.
I love you and I hate you and I’m never quite sure which one.

Is there a chance that we survive until morning?
That fight in you is a trait worth admiring.
In a couple of hours we can start this whole game again.

But Queenie, speaks louder than dead poets do,
You got some Van Zandt in you.
But Queenie, I’m not sure how we win this war,
Or what the hell were fighting for?
But Queenie, swears harder than most sailors do,
Drinks like there’s a hole in you.

But Queenie, your just how the west was won,
You are the drawn and smoking gun.
