Scarlet has lost herself forty-six times
And makes all the cherry trees dry
By turning her head to the sky
What would make her trade
Her water for honey
Or peel all the bandages back
From the old dog by the railroad tracks
The black smoke that introduced Jesse Dominguez
To all of the things he'd forget
Came from her Lucky Strike cigarette
She asked him if he'd trade
His water for honey
And as they both walked out the door
His water spilled out on th floor
Chorus:
Oh Undertaker, don't take them to early
Please give it a litte more time
Have another drink of that burgundy wine
You'll find this gets easier
After the roses have died
Jesse Dominguez collapsed in the moonlight
After trying to steal his first kiss
From the ruby on Scarlet's red lips
She wondered if he'd traded
His water for honey
And then she fell back in the knight
That broke bird don't know how to fly
