Dead Winter Carpenters

One Foot in the Gutter

Mr. Jones and his woman they both make me nervous
freshly returned freaks from the circus
that's where the money's at with a simese fat house cat
the dog can feel the fun stuff- once is never enough

One foot in the gutter one fist in the gold
I prefer to try than to be sold
One foot in the gutter one fist in the gold
I'd rather not die before I get old

And maybe they are greasy but you know they're first-rate
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Every time they come visit you always stay up late
Say 'no' to second helpings and always eat your greens
And fasten down the hatches and batten window screens

One foot in the gutter one fist in the gold
I prefer to try than to be sold
One foot in the gutter one fist in the gold
I'd rather not die before I get old

[instrumental]

Old Aunt Agness on the hill, you know she can't buy a thrill
But her old man thinks he can, he says he from Iran
And she just takes some pills and the bathtub's filled with laundry
She smiles when you see her, sitting home alone

One foot in the gutter one fist in the gold
I prefer to try than to be sold
One foot in the gutter one fist in the gold
I'd rather not die before I get old
