Album: The Jayhawks

Cherry Pie

Yeah
I rode the Rock'n'Rockets, running into Deadwood Town
Didn't have much money to lay my head down
Her momma came walking down the street
Carrying the words on a string
Chorus:
So I sat myself right down, ordered some sweet cherry pie
I had a mighty fine time in Deadwood
Tasting sweet cherry pie
Yeah
Used to pull the young, must be the Waterloo
All I have to say is, ";Honey, I won¡¯t sly to you";
I got a job hit the gold mine from nine to five
(Chorus)
Yeah
There¡¯s two bits in the gas tank, I¡¯m smoking big cigars
Didn't have too much money so I started stealing cars
Sheriff came walking down the street
Looks like a hard time in the can
(Chorus)
