I Feel Love (Every Million Miles) lyrics - The Dead Weather

Nothing is a color,
I cross the desert
Nothing is alive
What does the black top
know that I have not
cracked with my mind
Nothing is a color
Gray as the pill
Nobody Cries
Why do the screek lamp shine on still
Nothing is alive

I feel love every million miles
I feel love every once in a while
I feel love every million miles
I feel love every once in a while

Nothing is a color
I cross the desert
Nothing is alive
What does the black top
know that I have not
cracked with my mind
Nothing is a color
Gray as the pill
Deep in the eye
Why do the screek lamp shine on still
When nothing is alive

I feel love every million miles
I feel love every once in a while
I feel love every million miles
I feel love every once in a while

Why does my heartbeat feel like a speaker?
Feeding back
Repeater
Repeater

Why does my heartbeat feel like a speaker?
Feeding back
Repeater
Repeater

Why does my heartbeat feel like a speaker?
Feeding back
Repeater
Repeater

Why does my heartbeat feel like a speaker?
Feeding back

I feel love every million miles
I feel love every once in a while
I feel love every million miles
I feel love every once in a while

Buzzkill(er) lyrics - The Dead Weather

Oh, Lord, forget about me
I'm doing fine
Oh, Lord, forget about me
Let me ride
Oh, Lord, I got no minds for you
I will not please
No mercy shall be given me
Down in Tennessee

Stop!
Buzzkillin' me, why don't you
Stop!
Buzzkillin'

I've got my boots and my jacket on
My cash and key
Got my highs and lows and I
Come and go as I please
Good Lord, I've got no time for you
I've gotta run

Stop!
Buzzkillin' me, you gotta
Stop!
Buzzkillin'

Good Lord, won't you forget about me
I'm gettin' mine
Good Lord, won't you forget about me
Let me ride (hey!)
Oh, Lord, I will not follow you
I'm in the lead
Oh no, you will not get to me
Down in Tennessee

Let Me Through lyrics - The Dead Weather

Lovin' is a wild thing
And if you stand in my way
I'm gonna bully bully bully
Bully till I'm free

The apple is shining
Like glass on a highway
Devotion is salt in
Salt in any wound of my say

I got a bloodhound tooth
Hanging like a dagger in a bar back west
If you try and pull it down
You know I'll save all my best

Shots for you
Boom, boom, boom
Shots for you
Boom, boom, boom

Trouble is my heart twin
I shovel as I sing sing
I'm gonna dig it till I cut through
Heaving on the whole thing

The moon is mindless
But it's pulling is timeless
I'm gonna bully bully like this
Hike this until my path is windless

I'm a bad man, let me through
I'm a bad man, let me through
I'm a bad man, let me through
I'm a bad man, let me through

I got a bloodhound tooth
Hanging like a dagger in a bar back west
If you try and pull it down
You know I'll save all my best

Shots for you
Boom, boom, boom
Shots for you
Boom, boom, boom

Ooh, no one knows better than
Ooh, than the wrecker and the wrecked man
Ooh, don't need no protector
I'm a bad man, let me through

I'm a bad man, let me through
I'm a bad man, let me through
I'm a bad man, let me through
I'm a bad man, let me through, ow

I got a bloodhound tooth
Hanging like a dagger in a bar back west
If you try and pull it down
You know I'll save all my best

Shots for you
Boom, boom, boom
Shots for you you you
Boom, boom, boom

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

Three Dollar Hat lyrics - The Dead Weather

I'm that bad man named Jackie Lee
Shooting everybody down with a .33

Jackie said Johnny can't you see?
That you love everybody but Jackie Lee?

Johnny said to Jackie don't take my life
I got three young kids and a bad-ass wife

Jackie told Johnny you're acting crazy
What you know about having a baby?
You're crazy!

And what I care about your kids and wife?
You done stole my hat
I'm gonna take your life

I'm that bad man named Jackie Lee
Shooting everybody down with a .33

There's a knife in my hand
And I'm going to stand and deliver
Why? Because I must erase your mind forever
And I will stand before I surrender
I'll fall back but I won't be the one to say
Wait up! Where you at?
I'm so much better then that
Three dollar hat...

Jackie said Johnny lets tit for tat
You want to trade your life for a three dollar hat?

So They hung Jackie Lee at 3 o'clock
Left his hands laying there on the butcher block

He's that bad man named Jackie Lee
Shooting everybody down with a .33

Jackie and Johnny were sweet hearts
Oh what a love that they had

Lose The Right lyrics - The Dead Weather

I always knew you put poison in your potion
I lost my will to reason so long ago
You are as broken as the ghost that you believe in
I seen him in you, you know

Listen to me when I tell you what you mean to me
Just to clear the air, the air around you is killing me
Oh, whatever's in between you and me and the vicinity
It isn't fair to me so leave and don't come back to me

Oh, you lose the right
Oh, you lose the right

When your mind goes straight to hell, you lose the right
To tell anybody what to do
Your fire licks the sky just to blind
Whoever happens to come close enough to you

You lose the right

I always knew you put poison in your potion
You're broke like the ghost, the ghost, the ghost
The ghost that you believe in

Oh oh, you lose the right
Oh oh, you lose the right

Rough Detective lyrics - The Dead Weather

You're an unusual suspect now and may be right.
The kind all men cannot recollect or forget at night.
You're the rough detective with the smokey eye.
Where the person you are after is the other guy.
The apprentice is the master and the cop's a con.
You hear me laughing in the background.

Don't make me run, baby;
don't make me run, ah ow!
Don't make me run, baby;
don't make me run, ah, ow!

Well, I'll make you retell your story now just to trip you up.
This mirror is reflective only if you're tired.
Your instinct is defective, but your crook's on fire.
I, get a lil' possessive when I've tricking a liar, now.
You sympathize, you hypnotize, it's just so odd.
Well, I'm a rough detective on a glory ride.
You keep going faster so I slow down.
You hear me laughing in the background.

Don't make me run, baby;
don't make me run, ah ow!
Don't make me run, baby;
don't make me run, ah, ow!

Aaaaaah!
What's happening?
What's happening?
Well.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah...
I can't hold it any longer.
I can't hold it anymore.

She looked right at me and laughed; is she laughing?
She looked right at me, is she laughing at me?
Don't make me run.
Is she laughing at me?

Open Up lyrics - The Dead Weather

Have you noticed the rivers and the clocks, they're not moving?
What about the birds you got stuck on your ceiling, chirping?
I breathe in but I choke, little things make a landslide go
If I knew just the pin to hold in I'd build walls and you know, you know I would

My hand is faster than the pen but the end has been written down
Still the ink will not dry, undermined by a hope that I'm wrong

Open up, open up

I see your roses grew noses and noses go and get broken
And there's a hope, there's a place, there's a sickened feeling
I look into the space that defaced my belief in
Where we are, what it means, and what did you say your name was?
Well say it again

Open up, open up

Mind is faster than pen but the end is so stupid
Like bubblegum in your hair isn't fair but it smells good
Breathe in but you choke, but you choke on a mouthful
Of everything that you hoped, that you hoped was not there
But it's here, it's here

Open up, open up
That's enough, that's enough
Open up, open up
That's enough, that's enough
Open up, open up
That's enough, that's enough
Open up, open up
That's enough, that's enough

Have you noticed the rivers and the clocks, they're all sleeping?
Is it me or you who would stop yelling and screaming?
And there's a place with the lows and frequencies we're hearing

Open up, open up

Open up, open up
That's enough, that's enough
Open up, open up
That's enough, that's enough
Open up, open up
That's enough, that's enough
Open up, open up
That's enough

Be Still lyrics - The Dead Weather

Ice pop blue green
Sweet tooth yellow thing
You dream
In cartoon love pink

Ah ah ah ah ah

Little sister
The earth quakes no matter what
Coins shake in your pocketbook
Make a rattlesnake jump

So real, little sister
Alligator in the Glades
He's out on the weekends
Cruising your arcade

Be still, be still
Be still, be still
Be still, be still
Be still, be still

Be still, be still
Be still, be still
I don't know what to do
I don't want you to move
So don't move

Be still, little sister
Your immunity's in flux
As the volume gets you higher
Than the heavens can hold you up

The deal, little lady
In the cold light of day
His reflection in the neon
Window don't look so tame

Be still, be still
Be still, be still
Be still, be still
Be still, be still

Be still, be still
Be still, be still
I don't know what to do
I don't want you to move

Ice pop blue green
Sweet tooth yellow thing
You dream
In cartoon love pink

Ah ah ah ah ah

Mile Markers lyrics - The Dead Weather

The cold white flamingo wins at black market bingo
That we used to play, but we don't play no more
We used to travel playing hotel games
Eating truck stop dinners with Christian names
Pointing out porn in payphones pinned into the core
Now I just count mile markers between your door and my door

Big boys, bad girls
Grind their teeth in stereo
Big boys, bad girls
Grind their teeth in stereo

I creep, I don't move in the breeze like I used to
I bend backwards at the elbows and the knees
The silver tap is spewing crap and I'm halfway 'round the world
Flatlined in a space between my teeth

I churned my milk and honey, I lost track of all the money
My family rescued some other stray dog
When it rains, I open windows, I just lay there
I just lay getting waterlogged, trying to get along

Big boys, bad girls
Grind their teeth in stereo
Big boys, bad girls
Grind their teeth in stereo

The cold white flamingo wins at black market bingo
That we used to play, but we don't play no more
We used to travel playing hotel games
Eating truck stop dinners with Christian names
Pointing out porn in payphones pinned into the core
Now I just count mile markers between your door and my door

I creep, I don't move in the breeze like I used to
I bend backwards at the elbows and the knees
The silver tap is spewing crap and I'm halfway 'round the world
I'm flatlined in a space between my teeth

I churned my milk and honey, I lost track of all the money
So my family rescued some other stray dog
When it rains, I open windows, let it all in
I just lay getting waterlogged

1-800-SOMEONE, sweepstakes donation
Blood or a trip to the Bahamas
I'd really like to see you when you finish out your sentence
Dear soulmate behind stripes and stars

In stereo
In stereo

Cop And Go lyrics - The Dead Weather

Yes
No

Beautiful eyes long gone
Beautiful eyes return
Beautiful lies set in stone
Come alive, disarm
Take my life, alter form

You look at me on the level, uh-huh
Like we got shit to settle, uh-huh
But all you do is cop like a cop
And go

Here he comes shaking his old alibi
Here he comes eating his whole pie in the sky
Beautiful eyes, strange glow
Beautiful eyes, danger zone

Beautiful eyes, undertow
Creepin' up on your soul
Ain't no time to take it slow

Look at me on the level, uh-huh
Like we got shit to settle, uh-huh
You cop like a cop in a cookie jar
Get what you what? Did you get it all?
Oh please, give a little back to me

Beautiful eyes, burning slow
Thousand yard stare in my horoscope
Fully loaded so unload
Can't save myself, I been told

Look at me on the level, uh-huh
Like we got shit to settle, uh-huh
Cop like a cop in a cookie jar
Get what you want? Take it all

Cop like a cop
You cop like a cop
You cop like a cop like a cop
Like a cop like a cop

You cop like a cop and you go go go go
You cop like a cop and you go go go go
You cop like a cop and you go go go go
You cop like a cop and you go go go go

Cop like a cop and you go go go go, oh

Won't you give a little back to me?

Too Bad lyrics - The Dead Weather

Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey

I know where the body is
I know why the branches twist
And when the well is getting low
How it came to be so

I'm going back, yeah
I'm going back
I'm going back to bed, baby
It's just too too too too bad

I know how the story ends
I know who dies, I know who lives
I know both passing ships
And how it feels to really miss, so

I'm going back, yeah
I'm going back
I'm going back to bed
It's just too too too too too bad

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I know the girl next door
Yeah, I know the dress she wore
She took the bait, huh, she took the call
Oh I know I've heard it all, so

I'm going back, yeah
I'm going back
I'm going back to bed, baby
It's too too too too too bad

Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey

I'm going back, yeah
I'm going back
I'm going back to bed, baby
It's too too too too too bad

Impossible Winner lyrics - The Dead Weather

I am the desert sun
The ever endless sea
Not a drop of blue or white
Is where it shouldn't be
I'm a wheel going round
In a mirror house
A maze with no way out
What you have fears about
Holding on
To everything that's come and gone
I need distraction
Get me out from in-between
Everything I've ever seen
Don't be long
I'm no beginner
I'll be here every night
My name up in lights

The impossible winner

I'm the wilderness
Dark end of the street
Coast of infinity
Far as the eye can see
I'm a white noise, sound
Thorn upon a thorn
But when that whips around
No part of any storm
Holding on
To everything that's come and gone
I need distraction
Get me out from in-between
Everything I've ever seen
Don't be long
I'm no beginner
I'll be here every night
My name up in lights

The impossible winner
The impossible winner
The impossible winner

Drag my body through the sand
Drag my body down the road
Drag me up to the air
Turn around
Here I am
Drag me down, down low
Down, down small
Makes no difference
Turn around
Here I am
Holding on
To everything that's come and gone
I need distraction
Get me out from in-between
Everything I've ever seen
Don't be long
I'm no beginner
I'll be here every night
My name up in lights

The impossible winner
The impossible winner
The impossible winner

Blue Blood Blues lyrics - The Dead Weather

Yeah, I love you so much.
I don't need to resist.
I don't need to exist.
Dripping blue blood from the wrist.
I don't need to resist.
And all the neighbors get pissed when I come home.
I make em nervous. Yeah, I make em nervous.

Crack a window, crack a broken bone.
Crack your knuckles when you're at home.
Lick an ice cream cone. Crack a bone.

All you had to do was ask.
Who is it that wears the mask?
When you give me the task.
Leave me broke and shirtless.
Check your lips at the door woman.
Shake your hips like battleships.

Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.
Sing. Sing. Sing.

I only got one face da da da da.
I tried too long to erase.
You know if I left. da da da da.
I wouldn't leave a trace.

If I left you woman, you know, I wouldn't leave a trace.
I wouldn't leave a trace. I wouldn't leave a trace.

If I left, you'd never see me again.
You'd never see me again.
I wouldn't leave a trace.

You'd never see me again.

Hustle And Cuss lyrics - The Dead Weather

Knock on the door and the door knocks back
The joke never go no further than that
Fire goes back inside the match
Back down the stack

And we hustle and cuss
Lick on the dust
Hustle and cuss
Lick on the dust
Hustle and cuss
Lick on the dust

And we hustle and cuss
Hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
Hustle and cuss
Hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
Must you muscle and fuss?
You muscle and fuss
And lick on the dust
Hustle and cuss
Hustle and cuss and lick on the dust

When we were young
A different kind of fun
Playing in the mud
It meant something else
Now we hustle and cuss
Hustle and cuss

And we hustle and cuss
Hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
Hustle and cuss
Hustle and cuss and lick on the dust

Must we muscle and fuss?
You muscle and fuss
And lick on the dust
Hustle and cuss
Hustle and cuss and lick on the dust

You're easy to fool and easy to catch
And I don't know if I want you to
Match my bets

And we hustle and cuss
Lick on the dust
Hustle and cuss
Lick on the dust

And we hustle and cuss
Hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
Hustle and cuss
Hustle and cuss and lick on the dust

Must you muscle and fuss?
Hustle and cuss
Muscle and fuss
Muscle and fuss
And lick on the dust

The Difference Between Us lyrics - The Dead Weather

I'm not the way that you found me
I'm never here or there
One day I'm happy and healthy
Next I ain't doing so well

Let's go walk to the border
Let's go walk along the edge
Let's go when no one can see us
And find the difference between us

You can cry like a baby
Just let me do what I need to
It might be to me or to you
Just let me do what I need to

I'm not the way that you found me
I'm neither here nor there
One day I'm happy and healthy
Next I ain't doing so well

Let's go walk to the border
Let's go walk along the edge
Let's go when no one can see us
And find the difference between us

I'm not the way that you found me
I'm neither here nor there
One day I'm happy and healthy
Next I ain't doing so well

Let's go walk to the border
Let's go walk along the edge
Let's go when no one can see us
And find the difference between us

You can cry like a baby
Just let me do what I need to
It might be to me or to you
Just let me do what I need to

I'm not the way that you found me
I'm neither here nor there
One day I'm happy and healthy
Next I ain't doing so well

I'm Mad lyrics - The Dead Weather

I'm mad, ha ha
I'm mad, ha ha
I'm mad, ha ha

20 days, ha ha
I'm mad, ha ha
100 ways, ha ha
I'm mad, ha ha, ha ha

You found some dice, ha ha
Along the road, ha ha
You show them off, ha ha
Along the floor, ha ha

I'm mad, ha ha
20 days, ha ha
Make me mad, ha
A hundred ways

I'm mad, ha ha
I'm mad, ha ha
I'm mad, ha ha
A hundred ways, ha ha

You're in my mind
When you're in the room
In my heart
I'm mad on you
You're in my mind
When you're in the room

I'm mad, ha ha
I'm mad, ha ha
I'm mad, ha ha

Die By The Drop lyrics - The Dead Weather

Let's dig a hole in the sand, brother
A little grave we can fill together
I got myself a problem
That I been looking to sell

Some people die just a little
Sometimes you die by the drop
Some people die in the middle
I live just fine on the top

I'm gonna take you for worse or better
I'm gonna make you for worse or better
I'm gonna take you for worse or better
to my little grave

I never said we was equal
I never wished to be saved
If I'm a problem then preach on?
Let's dig a little grave

I'm gonna take you for worse or better
I'm gonna make you for worse or better
I'm gonna take you for worse or better
to my little grave

Let's dig a hole in the sand, brother
Starve off the land for worse or better
Get right down to the bottom
If one goes I'll dig the other

Some people die just a little
Sometimes you die by the drop
Some people die in the middle
I live just fine on the top

I'm gonna take you for worse or better
I'm gonna make you for worse or better
I'm gonna take you for worse or better
to my little grave

I Can't Hear You lyrics - The Dead Weather

I can't hear you
You're talking to yourself
And what you're used to
It don't work on no one else

I'm gonna teach you
And keep you for myself
Gonna take you by the hand
And walk you to my house
So I can hear you

I wanna hear you

I can't say so
Naive, be so naive
You're stashing money
There're rubies up your sleeve

I'm gonna teach you
You're never gonna leave
I'm gonna take you by the hand
Gonna walk you to my house
So I can hear you

I wanna hear you

I can't hear you
You're talking to yourself
And what you're used to
It don't work on no one else

I wanna teach you
Keep you for myself
Gonna take you by the hand
I'm gonna walk you to my house
So I can hear you

I wanna hear you
I wanna hear you
I wanna hear you
I wanna hear you
I wanna hear you

Gasoline lyrics - The Dead Weather

To be afraid is a luxury
So cool your engines for me
I don't want a sweetheart
I want a machine

I love you the most, I do
When you're so close to me
I can smell the gasoline

To be soft is too easy, huh
Don't get soft on me
I don't want a sweetheart, sweetheart
I want a machine

I love you the most, I do
When you're so close to me
I can smell the gasoline

To be afraid is a luxury
So cool your engines for me
I don't want a sweetheart
I want a machine

I love you the most, I do
When you're so close to me
I can smell the gasoline

What you whispered should be screamed
Screamed at the top of your lungs
Any sense you had in the morning
Is gone when the day is done

I love you the most, I do
When you're so close to me
I can smell the gasoline

No Horse lyrics - The Dead Weather

I ain't got no horse
I ain't got no horizon
Just the scars on my eyes
I swear I got from crying

Where I was born it don't matter
There ain't no going back
I have no home to take you
I never dream like that

Sit & watch my cigarette smoking on itself
Sit & watch my cigarette smoking on itself
Sit & watch my cigarette smoking on itself
And I think, what the hell, hell, hell

I don't want you to like me
There's no way that you can
I don't want you to touch me, honey
I am just so mad

There ain't no kind of feeling
All my ... are ... out (?)
I'm just living and breathing
For what I steal for (from?) myself

Sit & watch my cigarette smoking on itself
Sit & watch my cigarette smoking on itself
Sit & watch my cigarette smoking on itself
And I think, what the hell, hell, hell

Looking At The Invisible Man lyrics - The Dead Weather

I'm the invisible man
Like a broke down engine
No skin on my bones at all
No skin on my bones at all
I got nothin'
You can't hit me

Yeah, you're looking at me
Like you know what you're talking about
Ain't nothing to see
Wave your hands in the dark woman
Yeah, you're looking at me
Like you know what you're talking about
Ain't nothing to see here, now nothin'
You can't hit me

I'm like a broke down engine
I'm the invisible man
No skin on my bones at all

You look like you know what you're talking about
Like you know what you're talking about
Like you know what you're talking about
There ain't nothing to see
There ain't nothing to see
You can't hit me
You can't hit me

I'm the invisible man
I'm like a newspaper
You can't read

There ain't nothing to see
Like you know what you're talking about
Like you
Like you know what you're talking about
Like you
Like

Jawbreaker lyrics - The Dead Weather

I run so far away from you
Don't matter where I've been
Run around the world from you
And here you are again

You're a real jawbreaker
A real crook, obscene
I'd call you a heartbreaker
But I reserve that for prettier things

I tried to kill the memory
??
You must get a psychic sting ?
And here you are again

You're a real jawbreaker
A real crook, obscene
I'd call you a heartbreaker
But I reserve that for nicer things

I run so far away from you
It don't matter where I've been
I run around the world from you
And here you are again

You're a real jawbreaker
A real crook, obscene
I'd call you a heartbreaker
But I reserve that for nicer things

Old Mary lyrics - The Dead Weather

Old Mary full of grease
Your heart stops within you
Scary are the fruits of your tomb
And harsh are the terms of your sentence.

Old Mary Sister of mine
Mother to the world
Carry this burden now
Until the moment of your last breath.
Now till the moment of your last breath.

I lost my place.

"Horehound" (2009)

60 Feet Tall lyrics - The Dead Weather

You're so cruel and shameless
But I can't leave you be
You're so cold and dangerous
I can't leave you be
You got the kind of loving
I need constantly

Hooked up to my motor
All day long
We go down to Texas
Up to Montreal

Two eyes none the wiser
In the deep
When the water gets hotter
Both hands in the deep

You got my attention
You got it all

I can take the trouble
I'm 60 feet tall

I know it ain't easy
I must tap your evil well
Cos boy, do you come roaring
Like a bat out of hell
You drive me so reckless
You'll kill us all

I can take the trouble
I'll take you on

I can take the trouble
I'm 60 feet tall

You're so cruel and shameless
But I can let leave you be
You're so cold and dangerous
But I can't leave you be
You got the kind of loving
I need constantly

I can take the trouble
Cos I'm 60 feet
Tall

Hang You From The Heavens lyrics - The Dead Weather

I never know how to treat you
You think I love you but it ain't true
I'm walking away now
One step forward and back two

I like to grab you by the hair
And hang you up from the heavens

I don't know how to let you go
Or if i should keep you
I don't know how to let you know
I really don't got a reason

I like to grab you by the hair
And drag you to the devil

I never know why I push you
Trash you just to confuse you
I make a hole just to see how
See through clean I can cut you

I like to grab you by the hair
And hang you up from the heavens

I'd like to grab you by the hair
And sell you off to the devil

I never know what mood you be
Be mine be kind but be cruel to me
I'm walking away now
One step forward and back three

I never know what I'm gonna to do
I say I'm leaving but it ain't true
I got a lot I could do to you
Nothing you can do to stop it

I want to grab you by the hair
I want to grab you by the hair
I want to grab you by the hair
And hang you up from the heavens

I Cut Like A Buffalo lyrics - The Dead Weather

You know I look like a woman, but I
Cut like a buffalo
Stand up like a tower
But I fall
Just like a domino

You can hit me if you want to
Do whatever makes you happy
But don't take it easy on me
'Cause I don't know how to take it

You're a prick with a pin woman

Wake me up when it's broke
But only if it's broken
You know I treat you like a joke but you
Can't tell when I'm joking

You cut a record on my throat
But the record's not broken

Is that you choking?
Is that you choking?
Is that you choking?
Or are you just joking?

You know I look like a woman but I
Cut like a buffalo
Wake me up when it's broke
Just like a woman
You cut a record on my throat then you
Break me wide open

You're a pick with a pin woman
Push it into my skin girl
I'm a prick when I sin and I
Know I can't win

You know I look like a woman and I
Cut like a buffalo

So Far From Your Weapon lyrics - The Dead Weather

There's a bullet in my pocket burning a hole

You're so far from your weapon
And the place you were born

There's a bullet in my pocket burning a hole

You're so far from your weapon
And you want to go home

I try to give you whiskey
But it never do work
Suddenly, you're beggin me
To do so much worse

I knew it from the get go
The bullet was cursed
Ever since I had you
Every little thing hurts

You wanna get up? Let go?
I say no

You dream of seeing fire in them hills
But you better wipe that smile from your lips
Which of us will be the one to go?
He who hits the road's the one who lives

Treat Me Like Your Mother lyrics - The Dead Weather

Don't act like you can't act
I know I seen you do it
You better learn to shake hands
And treat me like your mother
Don't act like you can't act
Stand up like a man
You better learn to shake hands
And treat me like your mother

You came on too late
To do a thing

C'mon look me in the eye
You want to try to tell a lie?
I bet you can't and you know why?
I'm just like your mother

You cane on too late
Play dumb,
Play dead,
Play straight

Who's got it figured out?
Play dumb, play dead, play straight
Who's got it figured out?
Play straight
Try to manipulate

M-a-n-i-p-u-late
Am I?
M-I-too?
Am I too?
Late?

Who's got it figured out?
Left, right, left, right,
Got it figured out?
Play straight

Stand up like a man
You better learn to shake hands
Look me in the eye now,
Treat me like your mother
C'mon look me in the eye
You want to try to tell a lie?
You can't
You know why?
I'm just like your mother

Play dumb, play dead
Trying to manipulate
You blink when you breathe
You breathe when you like
You blink when you lie
Who's got it figured out?
Left right left right?
Who's got it figured out?
Play straight

You blink when you breathe
And you breathe when you lie
You blink when you lie
Who's got it figured out?
Play straight

Rocking Horse lyrics - The Dead Weather

I drank some dirty water
Shook evil hands
I've done some bad things
And they get easier to do

Then I wrote a nasty letter
And I sent it to the Lord
I said don't you dare come
And bother me no more

I had a good friend
I could only destroy
And lovers I loved less
Than anybody could afford

Yes but this old rocking horse
Just nods his head
And he's gonna rock back and forth
The way that he always did

Baby don't you bother
Tasting the water
And baby don't you bother
Coming closer to me

Can you see my eyes?
They're half the size
And I'm not able
To look at you

New Pony lyrics - The Dead Weather

Once I had a pony, her name was Lucifer
I had a pony, her name was Lucifer
She broke her leg and she needed shooting
I swear it hurt me more than it could ever have hurted her

Sometimes I wonder what's going on in the mind of Miss X
Sometimes I wonder what's going on in the mind of Miss X
You know she got such a sweet disposition
I never know what the poor girl's gonna do to me next

They say you're usin' voodoo, your feet walk by themselves
They say you're usin' voodoo, I seen your feet walk by themselves
Oh, baby, that god you been prayin' to
Is gonna give ya back what you're wishin' on someone else

Come over here pony, I, I wanna climb up one time on you
Come over here pony, I, I wanna climb up one time on you
Well, you're so bad and nasty
But I love you, yes I do

Bone House lyrics - The Dead Weather

I build a house
For your bones
I build a house
I build a home

I wrote a song
Go on and listen
That's all you'll hear
When I go missing

I always get the things I want

I make a nest
For your hair
I lay you down
I lay you there
I build a ship
I sink and sail
Every tooth
And every nail

I always get the things I want

I put your heart
In a vault
That's how I get
The things I want
I lay a road
For your mind
So your mind can
Go go go go

I always get the things I want

I build a house
I build a home
I build a house
For your bones
I build a house
For your bones
I build a house
I build a home

No Hassle Night lyrics - The Dead Weather

I'm looking for a place to go
Where the sun goes down
And stays down
I'm looking for a place to go
Where I can lay low
Die slow

My baby, she's uptight
Her face frozen in daylight
My darlin' she's a drifter
Nothing out there seems to fit her

I'm looking for a no hassle night
I've become her and it hurts my mouth
I'm looking for a no hassle night
I've become her and it hurts my mind
I'm looking for a no hassle night

My baby, she's a burglar
Nothing I know can deter her
I'm looking for a place to go
Were the sun goes down
I can lay low

Will There Be Enough Water? lyrics - The Dead Weather

Will there be enough water
When my ship comes in?

And when I set sail
Will there be enough wind?

Just because you caught me,
Does that make it a sin?

Cool water
And the cool wind

Outside lyrics - The Dead Weather

Showing signs of nothing but troubled times
Since I had you
Had you on my mind

But your heart is locked
You left me outside

Don't get a buzz, baby
When I start buzzing when you're here
Why don't you return?
Please come over here

But your heart's locked up
You left me outside

You left me outside

I been brought down
And it's a bad sensation
It's just too much
Too much for me to take

Without a chance now
There's no romance now
I better leave before I break

Oh oh

Hey

I been brought down
And it's a bad sensation
It's just too much
Too much for me to take

Without a chance now
There's no romance now
I better leave before I break

Oh oh

Don't get a buzz, baby
When I start buzzing when you're near
Why don't you return?
Please come over here

But your heart's locked up
You left me outside
