Song lyrics

Let's put a new coat of paint on this lonesome old town
Set 'em up, we'll be knockin' em down.
You wear a dress, baby, I wear a tie.
We'll laugh at that old bloodshot moon in that burgundy sky

All your scribbled lovedreams are lost or thrown away,
Here amidst the shuffle of an overflowing day
Our love needs a transfusion, let's shoot it full of wine
Fishin' for a good time starts with throwin' in your line.

So let's put a new coat of paint on this lonesome old town
Set 'em up, set 'em up, we'll be knockin' 'em down.
You wear a dress, baby, I wear a tie.
We'll laugh at that old bloodshot moon in that burgundy sky
