Huu huuuu

Huu huuuu

The last days were the meanest

Leanest days of our lives

You threw me the pieces

I started the fire

One thing led to a dead end

One shot put her away hey-hey

Look out on a green world

Windows and wives

No bedroom to run to

No miracle jive - no conversation

Then nothing meant nothing

Ten dollars tore us apart

On thing led to a dead end

One shot put her away

One thing nothing meant nothing

Ten dollars tore us apart

On thing led to a dead end

One shot put her away

The last days were the meanest

Leanest days of our lives

One thing led to a dead end

One shot put her away

Look out on a dream world

Windows and wifes

No bedroom to run too

No woman that I

no conversation

Hot love is the dearest

No money can buy

She burnt like a spitfire

One shot put her away

One shot put her away hey hey

One shot put her away

Ah ha ha

Ah ha ha ha

Ah ha ha

Ah ha ha ha

Ah ha ha

Ah ha haaaa

Ah ha ha

Ah ha ha ha

Ah ha ha

Ah ha ha ha

Ah ha ha
