Captain Beefheart And The Magic Band Lyrics

"Owed t'Alex" lyrics


Stupid heart, cupid heart
Where will you go from here?
Magnetic ring, magnetic draw
Ooh, what you got me into?
I'm a wolf, chrome craw
Leavin' you now
I'll write ya, ma

Takin' a putt up to Carson City

Well, if you hear me howlin'
Well hell, sittin' pretty
Tasting nitty gritty
Puttin' on in to Carson City

Sparks, tattoos, two tats and a toot
Helmets, crosses, and a patch to boot
Engine hot, pipes burn white
Glad I'm not home tonight
Five miles back I took a spill
Thought I almost paid my bill

Makin' my putt to Carson City

Party time with the Jones-by-name
Ahhh, it's a shame
Say, it's a pity
Gotta putt outta Carson City

Ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
