madeleine peyroux - you can't do me lyrics

you can’t do me, you can’t do me, you can’t do me the way you did before ?
you can’t do me, you can’t do me, you can’t do me the way you did before ?
’cause when you do, and when you do, ’cause when you do, you know i get so blue!
when you do, and when you do, ’cause when you do, you know i get so blue and i go
down like a deep sea diver, out like a coltrane tenor-man,
lost like a chinese war baby ? gone, gone, gone!
blewed like a mississippi sharecropper, screwed like a high-school cheerleader,
tattooed like a popeyed sailorman ? gone, gone, gone!

i should have been, i should have been, i should have been a pair of ragged claws.
i should have been, i should have been, i should have been a pair of ragged claws.
and for a while, for just a while, for a good long while you’d see me smile, smile, smile
i’d crawl the seas on my bony knees, no apologies for my brave new style. i wouldn’t go
bust like an internet millionaire, boom like a lebanese belly-dancer,
bang like a new year’s firecracker ? gone, gone, gone! i wouldn’t get
bent like a rattan rockin’ chair, blanked like a last place also ran,
burned like an arkansas griddlecake ? gone, gone, gone!

i should have been, i should have been, i should have been a pair of ragged claws.
and if i was, if i was, if i was then i’d complain no more.
and for a while, for just a while, for a good long while you’d see me smile, smile, smile.
i’d crawl the seas, on my bony knees, no apologies for my brave new style.
i wouldn’t get ?

wrecked like a rebel on a racetrack, jacked like a ’51 cadillac,
macked like a bunny in a mansion ? gone, gone, gone!
spitooned like an alabama ‘backy wad, harpooned in a melville sailor yard,
cartooned like a charlie brown christmas card ? gone, gone, gone!

schooled like a milk money bully whip, sued like a teenage downloader,
unglued like a bull in a china shop ? gone, gone, gone!
cranked like a speed freak high-roller, yanked like a little league ball swatter,
spanked like a fly on a bar counter ? gone, gone, gone!

duked like a pistol whipped card swapper, rebuked like a bible belt border crosser
juked like a payola chart topper ? gone, gone, gone!
