Recorded at 1816 Commercial Ave. in Coleman, TX and at Trinidad World Recording in Ft. Worth, TX

lyrics

Well you know he is his father's son.
But from decent things his mind would run.
And if he dies just like his grandfather done, get the freak disease
and die weeping on his knees.
He laid out among the trees,
and just pretend he'd never been.

Do-si-do the way the old folks go.
The brittle brilliance coming from the radio.
With a word where she could cut me to the quick.
Dancing cheek to cheek singing "payback it's a bitch".
But the warmth that we can feel
would burn the houses of the rich.

By the light you've got me wrong.

I'd drink the ocean to impress my Babyloo.
I'd buy a policy in case I'm sad at you.
Go on vacation to the state where thunder rips,
no wetter recreation. Tell the heavens we're not pissed.
It keeps the dust down with the mist.
We'll be married with a kiss.

By the light you've got me wrong.

But the warmth that we can feel would burn the houses of the rich.
