The Night & The Liquor

Elvis Perkins


Oh, the night and the liquor wear off
I see your sister more clear
Now that the sun has won the sky
Won't you sleep my lady?
Go to sleep baby
No, I can't sleep my baby

It's true, I loved her in ???
And you deserve far better than this mess
It's true, I loved her then forever(?)

But now it's you that I love
Always and ever (?)

Now the night and the liquor coming on
I hardly see your sister
Now that the star's on the sky
Won't you come back baby?

I won't come back, baby
For I love ??? lately
