Pal of mine, up all night
straightening the curtains 'til you get it right
in the morning, don't want to go to work
Swear I'll never button up another man's shirt
You can't iron the crease out of me
Slavery ain't responsibility
Wake up, cross yourself twice
skip a little rope then skip right out of sight
Pal of mine, come real near
I'm rattling my bones, do you want to hear?
The fatted calf is scratching at the door
he wants to come in, I think that he's bored.
Palomino, that's what I am
I'm a drunken pony on the Rio Grande
I'll kneel down in the waist high gross
and listen to your story 'til the verdict is passed
