Greg Brown Sadness Lyrics
Sadness come to my house
with a stinking bouquet,
smiled with her thin gray lips
and said, "Honey, I'm home to stay."
[chorus:]
And I said,
"Go away and leave me alone.
Go away and leave me."
She handed me rotgut whiskey
and a lit cigarette,
danced all around my room and said,
"Are we having fun yet?"
[repeat chorus]
She took off her party dress
and her tear stained brassiere,
came so close I could smell her
and said "Kiss me here and here."
[repeat chorus]
She lay down on my bed
and open her thin legs,
raised up her arms and said,
"Honey, I ain't too proud to beg."
[repeat chorus]
She said, "Don't you remember
what you did to that one, to the other one, too?
Well, I've just come to do exactly
the very same thing to you."
[repeat chorus]
I said, "I'm gonna get out my shotgun.
I'm gonna get out my Bowie knife -
and if you don't clear on outta here,
I'll kill you within an inch of your life."
[repeat chorus]
She said, "Honey, I've come to love you.
I'm gonna hook you 'til you burn -
and then I'll go and you will never know
just when I may return."
[repeat chorus]
I will go out in the mountains,
way out in the desert somewhere,
where the sun shines down on rocks and bushes
and there ain't no Sadness there.
[repeat chorus]
