He caught one, I see the dover from the corner of a sovereign ring [?]
He was dancing on the table when the bouncer took his swing
[Chorus]
When the jukebox went Babushka-Yai Ya
He was drinking down that scarlet shiner
Rabbiting like a gunman in a tower
Comes in waves in a tsunami
Living the life on the culls of danger
Did you go home with a complete stranger?
Chopping out lies in the back of a manger
[?]
In the back of the car down by the sea
[Chorus]
When the jukebox went Babushka-Yai Ya
He was drinking down that scarlet shiner
Your father’s son in the mother tongue
Babushka, Babushka, Babushka-Yai Ya
Looking for our hands like [?]
Sitting in a circle like Geneva
With the Berlin Wall falling in her head
On the Mexican day of the dead
Say a loyal hound never leaves his master’s
Grave
Stay with him if he falls underneath this wave
When the jukebox went Babushka-Yai Ya
He was drinking down the scarlet shiner
She sees a cross at the window
On the Mexican day of the dead
