tom waits - sixteen shells from a thirty-ought-six lyrics

Loading...

plugged sixteen sh-lls from a thirty-ought six
and a black crow snuck through a hole in the sky
so, i spent all my b-ttons on an old pack mule
and i made me a ladder from a p-wn shop marimba
i leaned it up against a dandelion tree
i leaned it up against a dandelion tree
i leaned it up against a dandelion tree

ma, cook them feathers on a tire iron spit
and i filled me a satchel full of old pig corn
and i beat me a billy from an old french h-rn
and i kicked that mule to the top of the tree
kicked that mule to the top of the tree

blew me a hole ’bout the size of a kick drum
and i cut me a switch from a long branch elbow

gonna whittle you into kindlin’
black crow, sixteen sh-lls from a thirty-ought six
whittle you into kindlin’
black crow, sixteen sh-lls from a thirty-ought six

now i slept in the holler of a dry creek bed
and i tore out the buckets from a red corvette
tore out the buckets from a red corvette
lionel and dave and the butcher made three
meet me by the knuckles of the skinnybone tree
with the strings of a washburn like a clothes line
now me and that mule scrambled right through the hole
me and that mule scrambled right through the hole

i’m gonna whittle you into kindlin’
black crow, sixteen sh-lls from a thirty-ought six
whittle you into kindlin’
black crow, sixteen sh-lls from a thirty-ought six

now i hold him prisoner in a washburn jail
that strapped on the back of my old kick mule
that strapped on the back of my old kick mule
i bang on the strings just to drive him crazy

whoa, i strum it loud to rattle his cage
strum it loud just to rattle his cage
strum it loud just to rattle his cage
strum it loud just to rattle his cage

i’m gonna whittle you into kindlin’
black crow, sixteen sh-lls from a thirty-ought six
whittle you into kindlin’
black crow, sixteen sh-lls from a thirty-ought six
