Testo Bishop Danced - Live - Bruce Springsteen
Testo della canzone Bishop Danced - Live (Bruce Springsteen), tratta dall'album Tracks
Bishop danced with a thumbscrew woman
Did a double-quick back flip and slid across the floor
The Catholic traffic flowed freely across the river
And fiddlestick fiddled quick out the front door
Oh, baby dumpling, mama's in the back tree
If the bow breaks mama might fall
Little sad and only, baby don't be lonely
Mama knows 'rithmatic, knows how to take a fall
Mama knows 'rithmatic, knows how to take a fall
And the kids are crying "Flapjacks, make 'em fat, early in the morning
Little Jack, grab your hat, hear the breakfast call
Muskrat, bat a cat, kick him in the fireplace"
There's someone in the kitchen blowing "Dinah" on their horn
There's someone in the kitchen blowing "Dinah" like they're born
Well, maverick daddy got one-eyed bride
She glides like a monkey-mule kicking on the back slide
Over hill, over hill, daddy don't you spill now
Papa got a switch stick, he's pumping little Bill
Papa got a switch stick, he's pumping little Bill
And Billy, he's crying "Tomahawk, tomahawk, daddy better duck now"
The Mohawks, the Mohawks, they're still out there in the woods
Monatuk, Ocanuk, runnin' through my dreams now
With fire on their fingertips and Indian screams
With fire on their fingertips and feathers made of moonbeams
Well, early in the morning the cannoneer cried
"I've seen the sailor's warning in the western sky"
Well, mountain man, if you can, cut me down a fir tree
Branches full of candlesticks for baby and me
And my darling cried, she said "Honey, the weathervane
Lately it's been pointing the way to heaven
Scatterbrains, scatterbrains, watch out where you fall
Champagne, champagne, a round for all the old choir boys
They're bustin' off the altar chasing Dinah through the hall
They're bustin' off the altar chasing Dinah through the hall
And like kids are crying "Flapjacks, make 'em fat, early in the morning
Little Jack, grab your hat, hear the breakfast call
Muskrat, bat a cat, kick him in the fireplace"
There's someone in the kitchen blowing "Dinah" on their horn
There's someone in the kitchen blowing "Dinah" like they're born
