Wrong Side Of The Road Lyrics

Put a dead cat on the railroad tracks
when the wolf bains blooming by the tressel
And get the eyeball of a rooster
and the stones from a ditch
and wash 'em down with bilge water(1)
and say you'll never snitch(2)
Take the buttons from a yellow jacket
the feather from a buzzard
The blood from a bounty hunter's cold black heart
Catch the tears of a widow in a thimble made of glass
Tell your mama and papa they can kiss your ass

Poison all the water in the wishin' well
and hang all them scarecrows from a Sycamore tree(3)
Burn down all them honeymoons put 'em in a pillow case
Wait next to the switch blades at the amusement park
for me
Strangle all the Christmas carols scratch out all the
prayers
Tie 'em up with barbed wire and push 'em down the
stairs
And I'll whittle you a pistol for keep the nightmares
of the blinds
Them sunabitches always seem to sneak up from behind
Syphon all the gas from your daddy's pickup truck Fill up Johnny's T-bird(4) I got a couple of bucks
Put on a little perfume and wear ribbon in your hair
Careful that you don't wake up the hounds
Tear a bolt of lightning of the side of the sky
Throw it in the cedar chest if you want to tell me why
Bring me the gear shift knob from a 49 Merc
Lay down here beside me let me hold you in the dirt
And you're gonna tremble
Tear the throat out of the night
Sink your teeth into my shoulder
Dig your nails into my back
Tell that little girl to let go of my sleeve
You'll be a woman when I catch you come baby fall in
love with me
Then with my double barrel shotgun and a whole box of
shells
We'll celebrate the 4 of July
We'll do 100 mph spendin' someone elses dough
We'll drive all the way to Reno(5)
on the wrong side of the road

The wrong side of the road
On the wrong side of the road
The wrong side of the road
Wrong side of the road
Wrong side of the road
Hey baby
