| 作曲 : Cousins | |
| CousinsThe sun was rising slowly, furnace hot at dawn | |
| Jay was in his hammock whittling on a horn | |
| I was in the kitchen munching stale cakes | |
| Thinking about | |
| Rose Mary and how the cookie breaks. | |
| All in all, it’s just another down-home day. | |
| Rose Mary was nineteen, slender as a wand | |
| Jay was something else, a bullfrog in a pond | |
| A viper in disguise, a rattler in a sack | |
| If you cared to call it, he would double slap you back. | |
| Rose Mary was smitten, she fell for | |
| Jay in style | |
| Just like | |
| Robert Mitchum, full of menace with a smile | |
| Fluttered her eye lashes, half an inch of hunch | |
| Jay was like a schoolboy, a kid in need of lunch. | |
| Jay took her to a dinner and told her of his power | |
| He checked into a hotel room but only booked an hour | |
| Rose Mary was no mug, she didn’t miss a thing | |
| When Jay stepped on the gas, whipping off his ring. | |
| His wedding ring was buried in the pocket of his pants | |
| Which Rose | |
| Mary was going through while | |
| Jay was scratching ants | |
| He opened up the bathroom door, feeling ill at ease | |
| But Rose Mary was long gone with his clothing and his keys. | |
| I was getting ready to round up missing steers | |
| When Rose | |
| Mary came knocking in a crocodile of tears | |
| She asked me what my name was, | |
| I said my name was | |
| JayShe asked me did | |
| I sleep well ? | |
| I said most everyday. | |
| They say that money talks, mine just said goodbye. |
