Tango Till They’re Sore

Well you play that tarantella And all the hounds they start to roar The boys all go to hell And then the Cubans hit the floor They climb along the pipeline They tango till they're sore They take apart their nightmares And they leave 'em by the door Oh, let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair Deal out jacks or better on a blanket by the stair I'll tell you all my secrets, but I'll lie about my past So send me off to bed forevermore Make sure they play my theme song I guess daisies will have to do Just get me to New Orleans And paint the shadows on the pews Cut the skin on that pig Kick the drum and let me down Put my clarinet beneath your bed Till I get back in town Let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair I deal out jacks or better on a blanket by the stairs I'll tell you all my secrets, but I'll lie about my past So send me off to bed forevermore Yes, she'll be all in calico Or the color of a doll I wave your flag on Cadillac Bay Hang a skillet on the wall Cut me a switch Oh, hold your breath till the sun goes down Write my name on a hood Send me off to another town Let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair I deal out jacks or better on a blanket by the stair I'll tell you all my secrets but I'll lie about my past So send me off to bed forevermore Send me off to bed forevermore
