lyrics

I heard you’re back on the road
I’ve been living with sin
I had the trouble with girls
I had the trouble with gin
And you, Alabaster, are you righteous again?
I haven’t found Jesus but I know where he swims

Are you looking real hard?
I ain’t lookin at all
Then how you gonna find him?
I hear he makes house calls
Are you done with the days being the belle of the ball?
I’ve been looking into how to get humble but tall

Buster my boy
Alabaster my friend
Thought we were goners in Las Cruces
Thought it might be the end
You’re still cracked as a crawdad
You’re still funny as a fox
Here’s to the death of Comanche and Knox

If you see my wife
I’ll tell her you’re not dead
Oh don’t do that, don’t wanna make her upset
Just give her a rose, the nicest one you can get
I’ll deliver your kiss with a marionette

I guess that’s best
Yes, let the old dogs lie
Is there a pain in your chest
Yes, but it helps to remind me
Not to be cruel or take for granted the kind
That’s the best guess you’ve had in some time

Refrain

Keep your head on your shoulders
Where else would it be
You’ve lost it before
On Captain Conrad’s sea
And what about you, where does your head be?
On the lap of my lady, resting quiet and free
