Lyrics
Drunken Poet's Dream
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've 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
Cigarette papers and dominoes
She laughs for a minute about the shape I'm in
Says, "You be the sinner honey and I'll be the sin."
Chorus:
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 poets dream
There's some money on the table and a pistol on the floor
Some old paper back books of Louis L'Amour
She says, "Honey, don't worry 'bout judgement day."
Dyin' to get to heaven just ain't our way
Repeat Chorus
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
Repeat Chorus
