Tom Waits
New Coat of Paint
[Chorus]
Let's put a new coat of paint on this lonesome old town
Set 'em up, we'll be knockin' em down
Ahh I’ll wear a dress, baby, you wear a tie
We'll laugh at that old bloodshot moon in that burgundy sky
[Verse 1]
All your scribbled love dreams, are lost or thrown away
Here amidst the shuffle of an overflowing day
Our love needs a transfusion so let's shoot it full of wine
Fishin' for a good time starts with throwin' in your line
[Chorus]
Let's put a new coat of paint on this lonesome old town
Set 'em up, we'll be knockin' em down
Ahh I’ll wear a dress, baby, you wear a tie
We'll laugh at that old bloodshot moon in that burgundy sky
