Gravity sue
4
Do I have to tell you again
5
Two old men were walking
6
walking down the road
7
their boots were made of raw hide
8
they carried a heavy load
9
one of them was a robber
10
the other was a cop
11
One said to the other
12
I think I'm gonna drop
13
That's okay the first one said but I aint gonna stop
14
I met a girl on Bleecker street
15
underneath a lamp
16
she said she had a speaker
17
I said I had an amp
18
We took em to Mcdougal and we opened up a socket
19
I took off on a bicycle
20
she took off on a rocket
21
I took off my sneakers
22
and she put em in her pocket
23
Sue was such a downer that they called her gravity
24
The only man who loved her was a thief from Tennessee
25
they bought a little farm house
26
and they burned it to the ground
27
the thief went crazy screaming
28
but Sue never made a sound
29
everyone knows gravity can only get you down
30
I heard my phone a ringing
31
I asked who's on the line
32
He said it was a friend
33
but it was no friend of mine
34
So I'll tell you how it's going
35
if you tell me how it went
36
He said I have fifty dollars
37
If you've got fifty cents
38
and both of them looked quite the same
39
after they'd been spent
40
Old Freight 63 train
41
rolling down the track
42
rolling straight to Memphis
43
and then it comes right back
44
The engineer's a bad man
45
Don't you mess with him
46
he carries around a cannon
47
and he votes republican
48
the hobos back in Yonkers they all call him Devil Jim
49
A prong with forty fingers
50
made a rat with twenty legs
51
they walked into a restaurant
52
and ate a dozen eggs
53
the cook took out a spatula
54
and waved it in the air
55
by the time the sherrif came around
56
only bloody bones were there
57
the paper said this sort of thing
58
just happens everywhere
59
everywhere
60
When I heard that you were gone
61
You know I hung my head and cried
62
I walked out on the highway
63
and I flagged myself a ride
64
I got into the backseat
65
and the door shut with a bang
66
the old cowboy behind the wheel
67
said he came from Birmingham
68
and all the way to New Orleans
69
this was the song he sang
70
Gravity Sue
71
what's become of you
72
Gravity Sue
73
do I have to tell you again
74
tell you again
75
Gravity Sue
76
what's become of you
77
Gravity Sue
78
do I have to tell you again
79
tell you again
80
ooooooo
81
Gravity Sue!
82
what's wrong with you
83
Gravity Sue
84
do I have to tell you again
85
tell you again
