New Coat Of Paint
edited by Plaisir
Let's put a new coat of paint
on this lonesome old town
Set em' up, we'll be knockin' 'em down
You wear a dress
Baby I'll wear a tie
We'll laugh at that old bloodshot moon
in that Burgundy sky
All our scribbled love dreams
are lost or thrown away
Here amidst the shuffle
of an overflowin' day
Love needs a transfusion
let's shoot it full of wine
Fishin' for a good time
starts with throwin' in your line
So let's put a new coat of paint
on this lonesome old town
Set em' up, set em' up, we'll be knockin' 'em down
You wear a dress baby
I'll wear a tie
We'll laugh at that old bloodshot moon
in that burgundy sky
