Cows Down Below
The couple down below I didn't really know They didn't get along They'd grab what they could throw They would start right after light It would go through half the night Why so, I didn't know But that was half the show
One day I'm sitting home She was out front in just her robe I thought I caught her eye I wasn't sure The day was going slow So I went down to say "hello" She said she could talk a while but then I'd have to go
She had to walk the streets So she could smoke and drink and eat If she didn't have the dough She didn't have a home
The drinks began to flow She moved over right up close Then we heard the phone She said, "Shit, you gotta go, he's coming home"
That night it woke me up I saw the cherries popping off Somebody'd called a squad I had to know They said he came out of nowhere And he'd found that I'd been there He spread her face around the place and then he run Now she's done
It was down below They were down below
