"Cannonball! Pt. 2" lyrics

"Cannonball! Pt. 2"

Fireflies to show me around
Every hole in New York town
My eyes are getting old
But I don't mind the blue and gold
The blue and gold

Up at Hadley's five and dime
Ten years of killing time with Sam and Outside Joe
Blackjack and Egyptian rat
Kick-the-can and the biscuit dance
Our eyes are getting old
But we don't mind the blue and gold
The blue and gold

"Race me down to the well," said Sue
"Last one surrenders their family jewels
You're quick, but Hunter, I am too"

All the ways that she laughed
Made me want to make her laugh
Knock knock, no one's home
I saw the dog of a drifter out on the sidewalk yesterday
And she said, "Hey sure I'm grateful
But how long do you think this walk will go?"
I don't know
Oh, my jokes are getting old, they're getting old

"Race me down to the well," said Sue
"Last one surrenders their family jewels
You're quick, but Hunter, I am too"

"Race me down to the well," said Sue
"Last one surrenders their family jewels
You're quick, but Hunter, I am too"
