"Clap Hands" lyrics
"Clap Hands"
Sane, sane, they're all insane
The fireman's blind, the conductor's lame
A Cincinnati jacket and a sad luck dame
Hanging out the window with a bottle full of rain
Clap hands
Clap hands
Clap hands
Clap hands
Said, "Roar, roar the thunder and the roar
Son of a bitch is never comin' back here no more
Moon in the window and a bird on the pole
We can always find a millionaire to shovel all the coal."
Clap hands
Clap hands
Clap hands
Clap hands
Said, "Steam, steam, a hundred bad dreams
Goin' up to Harlem with a pistol in his jeans
A fifty dollar bill inside of Paladin's hat
And nobody's sure where Mr. Knickerbocker's at."
Roar, roar the thunder and the roar
Son of a bitch is never comin' back here no more
Moon in the window and a bird on the pole
Always find a millionaire to shovel all the coal
Clap hands
Clap hands
Clap hands
Clap hands
I said, "Steam, steam, a hundred bad dreams
Goin' up to Harlem with a pistol in his jeans
A fifty dollar bill inside of Paladin's hat
And nobody's sure where Mr. Knickerbocker's at."
Shine, shine a Roosevelt dime
All the way to Baltimore and runnin' out of time
The Salvation Army seemed to wind up in the hole
They all went to Heaven in a little row boat
Clap hands
Clap hands
Clap hands
Clap hands
Clap hands
Clap hands
Clap hands
Clap hands
Oh, clap hands
Oh, clap hands
Oh, clap hands
Clap hands

Did you ever want to take that knife and discover?
Like cutting into a sack of grain

And look at each...
Rhiannon Giddens - "At The Purchaser's Option" I've got a babe, but shall I keep him?

You can take my body
You can take my bones

You must face yourself and you must say
I remember better days
Don't you cry 'cause she is gone
She is only moving on
Chasing mirrors through a haze
