Well, you can buy me a drink and Ill tell you what Ive seen And Ill give you a bargain from the edge of a maniacs dream That buys a black widow spider with a riddle in his yarn Thats clingin to the furrow of a blind mans brow And Ill start talkin from the brim of a thimble full of whiskey On a train through the Bronx that will take you just as far As the empty of a bottle to the highway of a scar That stretched across the blacktop of my cheek like that And then ducks beneath the brim of a fugitives hat Youll learn why liquor makes a stool pigeon rat on every face That ever left a shadow down on Saint Marks place Hell, Id double-cross my mother if it was whiskey that they paid And so an early bird says Nightsticks on the hit parade And he aint got a prayer and his days are numbered And youll track him down like a dog But its a tough customer youre gettin in this trade Cause the Nightsticks heart pumps lemonade And whiskey keeps a blind man talkin all right And Im the only one who knows just where he stayed last night He was in a wreckin yard in a switchblade storm In a wheelbarrow with nothin but revenge to keep him warm And a half a million dollars in unmarked bills Was the Nightsticks blanket in a February chill And the buzzards drove a crooked sky beneath a black wing halo He was dealin high Chicago in the mud And stackin the deck against a dragnets eye And the shiverin Nightstick in a miserable heap With the siren for a lullaby singin him to sleep And bleedin from a buttonhole, and torn by a slug Fired from the barrel of a two dollar gun That scorched a blister on the grip of a punk by now Is learnin what you have to pay to be a hero anyhow He dressed the hole in his gut with a hundred dollar bandage A kings ransom for a bedspread that dont amount
