Let's put a new coat of paint on this lonesome old town
Set 'em up, we'll be knocking 'em down
You wear a dress, baby, I'll wear a tie
We'll laugh at that ol' bloodshot moon in that burgundy sky

All our scribbled lovedreams are lost or thrown away
Here amidst the shuffle of an overflowing day
Love needs a transfusion, let's shoot it full of wine
Fishing for a good time starts with throwing in your line

Let's put a new coat of paint on this lonesome old town
Set 'em up, set 'em up, we'll be knocking 'em down
You wear a dress, baby, I'll wear a tie
We'll laugh at that old bloodshot moon in that burgundy sky
This song is from the album "The Heart Of Saturday Night" and "Original Album Series".
