best i ever had

cypress grove

that's where i'm heading

it's way down lexington

by the corner bar

i get off work

around eleven

i'm sure they'll let you in

if you come in style

and i won't treat you so bad

'cause you're the best i've ever had

oh oh oh

your father's gone

the famous criminal

buried with his pa

in illinois

his love's asleep

in a turning windmill

laying with a wanted

iroquois

but we don't need to sleep at all

'til the lights of newburg fall

saturn's bright

the kids have scattered

half of all i own is

in my fist

tie together your sheets

throw 'em out your window

and meet me where the ocean

meets the cliff

just like joseph kennedy

we'll explode into the sea

oh oh oh
