"Hollowpoint Blues" lyrics - SHOVELS & ROPE

Drink me a bottle of Night Train
I'mma drink me a bottle of Night Train
I'mma drink me a bottle of Night Train
Drink so much on the bottle I forget his name

He got hollow point teeth and a rhythm when he walk
Hollow point teeth and a rhythm when he walk
Hollow point teeth and a rhythm when he walk

Lord knows I'd love to make him but I can't understand him when he talk
You gotta find somebody that'll take a little mercy on you

Told my secret to a junky whore
Told my secret to a junky whore
Told my secret to a junky whore

She looked at me pitiful, said I been down that road before

Well I won't let nobody tell me what I do
Won't let nobody tell me what I do
Won't let nobody tell me what I do

And I believe in my pistol more than I believe in you
You better find somebody that'll take a little mercy on you

When I find that man I'mma shake him to the ground
Find that man I'mma shake him to the ground
Find that man I'mma shake him, shake him, shake him down
All around for round for round and pound for pound

You better find somebody that'll take a little mercy on you
You better find somebody that'll take a little mercy on you
You better find somebody that'll take a little mercy on you
Won't be me, won't be me, won't be me
