Well ya play that tarantella All the hounds will start to roll The boys all go ta hell And then the Cubans hit the floor And they drive along the pipeline They tango 'till they're sore They take apart their nightmares And they leave 'em by the door Chorus: Let me fall out of the window With confetti in my hair Deal out Jacks or better On a blanket by the stairs I'll tell you all my secrets But I lie about my past So send me off to bed for evermore Verse 2: Make sure they play my theme song I guess daisy's will have to do Just get me to New Orleans And paint shadows on the pews Turn the spit on that pig And kick the drum and let me down Put my clarinet beneath my bed Till I get back in town Chorus Just make sure she's all in calico In the colour of a doll Wave the flag on Cadillac day And a skillet on the wall Cut me a switch Or hold your breath till the sun goes down Write my name on the hood Send me off to another town Chorus ( x 2 )
