Daisies stand up on their tiptoes
And clouds stumble over themselves in the sky
And all the pretty horses come runnin' to her
And even the dust devils pray
That they'll catch her eye
Riff 1
But baby, baby, I could call you baby
If I weren't so empty in the head and tied up in the tongue
And baby, baby, I could call you baby
If I weren't so green and dumb
Riff 1 (x2)
I need your government warnin'
Like I need a hole in my head
Your paycheck won't fill up this hollow, won't dull all the a - chin'
Chorus
