Shakey Graves - City In A Bottle lyrics

[Verse 1] Well the cold has a hard time finding me Unlike some folks I know Yeah all the men down in Union Square Are worried about the snow [Bridge 1] 'Cause when your pockets fill with dollar bills your heart forgets to eat It's a wicked thing, it owns this street [Verse 2] So fix your boots or take me home says quick Monique the freak I need an easy dollar are you trick or are you treat If she was six teeth younger and I had half a mind You know I'd carry her away from that wicked thing outside [Verse 3] Oh well I saw a carried bundle That had fingers eyes and toes As a father of deception I have never raised a soul [Bridge 2] It's a purchase capture second hand and cherished more than gold It's a shelter from the wicked thing that wanders in the night [Verse 4] Oh yeah so fix your boots or take me home says quick Monique the freak Oh yeah I need an easy dollar are you trick or are you treat Oh if she was six teeth younger and I had half a mind You know I'd carry her away from that wicked thing outside [Outro] The water on the dirty streets has all but turned to ice To pave the road for wicked things that wander in the night
