Ah wanna tell ya bout a girl You know, she lives in room 29 Why... Why... thats the one right up top a mine I start to cry, I start to cry O Ah hear her walkin Walkin barefoot cross the floorboards All thru this lonesome night I hear her crying too Hottears come splashin on down Leaking thru the cracks Down upon my face, Ah catchem in my mouth! Ah catchem in my mouth! Ah catchem in my mouth! Walkncry Walkncryy!!! From her to eternity! From her to eternity! From her to eternity! I read her diary on her sheets Scrutinizin every lil bit of dirt Tore out a pagenstufft it inside my shirt Fled outta the window And shinning it down the vine Outta her nightmare, and back into mine Mine! O Mine! From her to eternity! From her to eternity! From her to eternity! Cry! Cry! CRY! Shes wearing them blue stockins, I bet! And standin like this with my ear to the ceiling Listen, Ah know it must sound absurd But Ah can hear the most melancholy sound Ah ever heard! Walkncry! Kneelncryy! From her to eternity! From her to eternity! O tell me why? O tell me why? Oh Why? Why? Why? O tell me why and dont tell me a lie! Why the ceiling still shakes? Shakes! Shakes! Shakes! Why the fixtures turn to serpents and snakes? This desire to possess her is a wound And its naggin at me like a shrew But, I know, that to possess her Is, therefore, not to desire her O o o then ya know, that lil girl would just have to go! Go! Gooo! From her to eternity! From her to eternity
eternity, ah, catchem, walkncry, cry
