Jupiter and Teardrop

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Just a girl who can't say no And her sweetheart on parole Parents named her Jupiter To bless her with a lucky soul [Verse 2] He's a boy who never cried When they locked him up inside And she nicknamed him her teardrop For the tattoo by his eye [Chorus] Now she's sleeping in her bed And he's sleeping in her bed And it's Jupiter and Teardrop And it's Jupiter and Teardrop [Verse 3] She divines by radio Pushing buttons show to show And she wonders 'bout the fate of Lovers in the barrio [Verse 4] She forgets after a while When she tunes in on the dial Jackie Wilson's Lonely Teardrops And she drives another mile [Chorus] Now she's sleeping in her bed And he's sleeping in her bed And it's Jupiter and Teardrop And it's Jupiter and Teardrop And it's Jupiter and Teardrop [Guitar Solo] [Verse 5] And they want to have a child Walk together down the aisle But the world they live in is mean And it's built on sheer denial [Verse 6] The phone rings it's for her Gotta see ya Jupiter I'm in trouble with the law Bring my 38 caliber [Chorus] Now she's sleeping in her bed As she pulls the phone plug dead, dead And it's Jupiter and Teardrop And it's Jupiter and Teardrop And it's Jupiter and Teardrop Oh, and it's Jupiter and Teardrop [Outro] And it's Jupiter and Tear Ugh And it's Jupiter and Tear Oh oh Ju-huh
