Tom Waits - Dog Door lyrics

rate me

(Waits/Brennan/Linkous)

Well, she's as mean as a needle

Don't get close to the heater

Ah, she's a mean shopkeeper

Who got an extra gun

She's about six foot four

And she's a wrecking-ball

Now go ahead and kiss her

She brought the bad weather with her

She got you coming through the dog door

She got you coming through the dog door

Now pigs get fat

Hogs get slaughtered

You oughta walk away

Well you can't, but you oughta

Climb the rickety stairs

She got long black hair

But don't sit there

Electricity chair

She got you coming through the dog door

She got you coming through the dog door

Pitchfork (pitchfork)

Crowbar (crowbar)

Clawhammer (clawhammer)

Hot tar (hot tar)

She got ruin in her name

And she can make it rain

She's a small town jail

And you're starving in the belly of the whale

She got you coming through the dog door

She got you coming through the dog door

Pitchfork (pitchfork)

Crowbar (crowbar)

Clawhammer (clawhammer)

Hot tar (hot tar)
