TENNESSEE WILLIAMS

baby cross your fingers
baby witch us up some luck
you know if it's good if it's good enough
it's sure gotta be tough
but I swear my God my Angel
I'm going with you when you fall
don't believe don't believe the bad news
some fools love to talk
they love to talk

(chorus)
just like something out of Tennessee Williams
when you're sassin' that way at me
hey we're crackin' up beneath the branches
of that old half-dead shade tree


you could give me a call sometime
on your powder blue princess phone
it ain't no good for somebody like you
to spend the summertime all alone
so do you want to pass the red wine
over here from your tongue to mine
don't believe don't believe the bad news
some fools love to lie
they love to lie

(chorus)


I know you're not right
hey ain't we all not right sometimes
it's gonna be a long night
before the Sunday morning chimes
church bell chimes


I could wear your makeup
I could wear your jewelry too
I could dress it up for you
like them Crescent City boys all used to do
but I swear my God my Angel
I'm going down with you when you fall
don't believe don't believe the bad news
some fools they ain't going no place at all

(chorus)
