One old brown shoe falls in slow motion, And the bedsprings hover right above your head, As bed springs do, when you`re beneath them. Someone else just climbed into your bed.
By the time she thought you`d probably got to Phoenix, She`d arranged for your shoes to be filled. Well you`ve got your pride, and a blue-steel `45, And you`re waiting for the other shoe to fall.
You`ll dig a double grave out in the meadow, And you`ll curse the rain that turns the dirt to mud. You`ll take I-35 south towards Laredo, Then you`ll try to find a doctor who can prescribe an elixir That`ll make everything better, except your late wife and her lover.
By the time she thought you`d probably got to Phoenix, She`d sealed her fate and gotten herself killed. Well you`ve got your pride, and a blue-steel `45, And you`re waiting for the other shoe to fall.
