Painting the Town Blue - X

Bartender's eyes are full of pity

As he tells her you're alone and it's 2:30

All the chairs are on the table and it's time to close

She said a minute ago they were starin' at me

Where the hell did they go

Then she went out to paint the town

Roses are red violence is too

Everyone knows I'm painting the town blue

You look funny when you cry were his last words

Before he laughed and said

goodbye she flipped a finger

And so she picked her shoes up picked up her feet

And let ''em walk hand in hand

down the dirty hallway

Then she went out to paint the town

Roses are red violence is too

Everyone knows I'm painting the town blue

Was she beat did she suffer from a working hand

She always hated his hacking

cough early in the morning

She walked to the greyhound to take a little ride

He could look in the corner of

every town but he won't find her

'Cause she went out to paint the town

Roses are red violence is too

Everyone knows I'm painting the town blue
