作词 : Waits
Put a dead cat on the railroad tracks
 When the wolf bains
 Bloomin' by the tressel
 And get the eyeball of a rooster
 And the stones from a ditch
 And wash 'em down with bilge water
 And you say, "You'll never snitch"
 
 Take the buttons from a yellow jacket
 The feather from a buzzard
 The blood from a bounty hunters cold black heart
 Catch the tears of a widow
 In a thimble made of glass
 Tell your mama and your papa
 They can kick your ass
 
 Poison all the water in the wishin' well
 And hang all them scarecrows
 From a sycamore tree
 Burn down all those honeymoons
 Put 'em in a pillow case
 And wait next to the switch blades
 At the amusement park for me
 
 Strangle all the Christmas carols
 Scratch out all your prayers
 Tie 'em up with barbed wire
 And push them down the stairs
 And I'll whittle you a pistol
 For keepin' nightmares of your blinds
 Them son of a bitches always
 Seem to sneak up from behind
 
 Syphon all the gas
 From your daddy's pickup truck
 Fill up Johnny's T-bird
 I got a couple of bucks
 Put a little perfume
 And ribbon in your hair
 Careful that you don't wake up the hounds
 
 Tear a bolt of lightnin'
 Of the side of the sky
 And throw it in the cedar chest
 If you want to tell me why
 Bring the gear shift knob from a 49 Merc
 And lay down here beside me
 Let me hold you in the dirt
 
 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
 
 With my double barrel shotgun
 And a whole box of shells
 We'll celebrate the fourth of July
 We'll do 100 M.P.H.
 Spendin', someone else's dough
 And we'll drive all the way to Reno
 On the wrong side of the road
 
 On the wrong side of the road
 On the wrong side of the road
 Wrong side of the road
 Wrong side of the road
 Wrong side of the road
