Lyrics to Crooked Teeth
If two fill-ups is all it takes I guess I'll make the drive
Down past the Texas line to make sure he's not alive
They dumped him off of a river bridge in fall of '84
Word got around that he climbed out of that muddy red river floor
Lost my bride to the finest man she claims to have ever known
When she got to the parking lot his knees were already blown
Love is such a mighty drug, a mightier disease
Bet he misses her floating past the barge
Of one eye and crooked teeth
One eye and crooked teeth
One eye and crooked teeth
One eye and crooked teeth
Your crooked teeth are floating and my lady's resting fine
Seven miles out of Bismark next to Bakken oil lines
I laid her down so softly and so kindly reassured
Love it ain't for taming a disease that can't be cured
And I'll drive through Colorado on a rocky stretch of road
With no one who loves me as far as telephone poles go
I wish I was a trusting man, but a trusting man is weak
The only thing worth trusting is some brass through crooked teeth
Some brass through crooked teeth
Some brass through crooked teeth
Your crooked teeth are floating and my lady's resting fine
Seven miles out of Bismark next to Bakken oil lines
I laid her down so softly and so kindly reassured
Love it ain't for taming a disease that can't be cured
Lost my bride to the finest man she claims to have ever known
When she got to the parking lot his knees were already blown
Love is such a mighty drug, a mightier disease
Bet he misses her floating past the barge
Of one eye and crooked teeth
Down past the Texas line to make sure he's not alive
They dumped him off of a river bridge in fall of '84
Word got around that he climbed out of that muddy red river floor
Lost my bride to the finest man she claims to have ever known
When she got to the parking lot his knees were already blown
Love is such a mighty drug, a mightier disease
Bet he misses her floating past the barge
Of one eye and crooked teeth
One eye and crooked teeth
One eye and crooked teeth
One eye and crooked teeth
Your crooked teeth are floating and my lady's resting fine
Seven miles out of Bismark next to Bakken oil lines
I laid her down so softly and so kindly reassured
Love it ain't for taming a disease that can't be cured
And I'll drive through Colorado on a rocky stretch of road
With no one who loves me as far as telephone poles go
I wish I was a trusting man, but a trusting man is weak
The only thing worth trusting is some brass through crooked teeth
Some brass through crooked teeth
Some brass through crooked teeth
Your crooked teeth are floating and my lady's resting fine
Seven miles out of Bismark next to Bakken oil lines
I laid her down so softly and so kindly reassured
Love it ain't for taming a disease that can't be cured
Lost my bride to the finest man she claims to have ever known
When she got to the parking lot his knees were already blown
Love is such a mighty drug, a mightier disease
Bet he misses her floating past the barge
Of one eye and crooked teeth
