Steely Dan - Turn That Heartbeat over Again lyrics

rate me

With stocking face I bought a gun

The plan was set the plan was done

Looked at my watch and started for the door

Now the food here ain't so good no more

And they closed the package store

CHORUS:

Love your mama, love your brother

Love 'em till they run for cover

Turn the light off, keep your shirt on

Cry a jag on me

Oh Michael Oh Jesus you know I'm not to blame

You know my reputation for playing a good clean game

Oh Michael Oh Jesus I'll keep my promise when

You turn that heartbeat over again

My poison's named you know my brand

So please make mine a double, Sam

Stir it up nice I'll eat it right here

This highway runs from Paraguay

And I've just come all the way

CHORUS

We warned the corpse of William Wright

Not to cuss and drink all night

Ticket in hand *WE* saw him laid to rest

But zombie see and zombie do

He's here with me and you

CHORUS
