Karaoké Drunken Poet's Dream Hayes Carll

I got a woman she's wild as Rome

She likes to lay naked and be gazed upon

Well, she crosses a bridge and then sets it on fire

Lands like a bird on a telephone wire

Wine bottles scattered like last nights clothes

A-cigarettes, papers and dominoes

Well, she laughs for a minute 'bout the shape I'm in

Says, you be the sinner, honey

I'll be the sin

I'm gonna holler and I'm gonna scream

I'm gonna get me some mescaline

She brings me roses and a place to lean

A drunken poets dream

There's some money on the table and a pistol on the floor

Some old paper back books of Louis L'Amour

She says, Honey, don't worry 'bout judgement day

All these people goin' to heaven they're just in our way

I'm gonna holler and I'm gonna scream

I'm gonna get me some mescaline

She brings me roses and a place to lean

A drunken poets dream

And all my life I laid around while the colors all turned blue

A-well I closed my eyes when I finally found it brought me back to you

I got a woman she's wild as Rome

Ah, she likes to lay naked and be gazed upon

Well, she crosses a bridge then sets it on fire

Lands like a bird on a telephone wire

I'm gonna holler and I'm gonna scream

I'm gonna get me some mescaline

She brings me roses and a place to lean

A drunken poets dream

A drunken poets dream
