Joe Murder
Cass McCombs
Who is Joe Murder?
I found him in your ear
Pinching a penny
Where no one could hear
Joe powdered your sinal bridge
Breaking through the crust
Powder turns to smoke
And smoke turns into dust
I burned my wallet
And purged my Soul
Blood for money
And fire for gold
Murder
Murder
Who is Joe Murder?
I met him on a job
Cutting a power
For the Spanish mob
Joe cut with milk sugar
To eliminate cost
Such a frugal drifter
But not all who wander are lost
I burned my wallet
And purged my Soul
Blood for money
And fire for gold
Murder
Murder
