Madeleine Peyroux - Tango Till They're Sore Lyrics






Well you play that tarantella and all the hounds, they start to roar
The boys all go to hell and then the Cubans hit the floor
They climb along the pipeline
They tango til they're sore
They take apart their nightmares and they leave them by the door
Oh, let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair
Deal out jacks or better on a blanket by the stair
I'll tell you all my secrets but I'll lie about my past
So send my off to bed forevermore
Make sure they play my theme song
I guess daisies'll have to do
Just get me to New Orleans and paint shadows on the pews
Cut the skin on that pig
Kick the drum and let me down
Put my clarinet beneath your bed til I get back in town
Let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair
Deal out jacks or better on a blanket by the stairs
I'll tell you all my secrets but I'll lie about my past
So send my off to bed forevermore
Yes she'll be all in calico
Or the color of a doll
I wave your flag on Cadillac Bay
Hang a skillet on the wall
Cut me a switch
Oh, hold your breath til the sun goes down
Write my name down on a hood
Send me off to another town
Let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair
Deal out jacks or better on a blanket by the stair
I'll tell you all my secrets but I'll lie about my past
So send my off to bed forevermore
Send me off to bed forevermore
