Whistling Past The Graveyard Meaning
[[Verse 1] Coming in on the night train with an arm full of box cars On the wings of a magpie across a hooligan night Busted up a chifforobe way out by the Cocomo Cooked up a mess a mulligan and got into a fight [Chorus] Whistlin’ past the graveyard Steppin’ on a crack I’m a mean motherhubba Papa one eyed jack [Verse 2] You probably seen me sleepin’ out by the railroad tracks Ask the prince of darkness about the smoke from the stack Sometimes I kill a jackal and suck out all the blood Steal myself a station-wagon, drive it into the mud [Chorus] Whistlin’ past the graveyard Steppin’ on a crack I’m a mean motherhubba Papa one eyed jack [Verse 3] I know you’ve seen my headlights and the honkin’ of my horn I’m callin’ out my bloodhounds, chase the devil out the corn Last night I cracked the Mississippi but now it’s dry as a bone I was born in a taxi cab, I ain’t never goin’ home , [Chorus] Whistlin’ past the graveyard Steppin’ on a crack I’m a mean motherhubba Papa one eyed jack [Verse 4] My eyes have seen the glory of the drainin’ of the ditch I’m comin’ to Baton Rouge to find myself a witch I’m gonna switch me a couple of ’em every time it rains You gotta see a locomotive, probably think it’s a train [Chorus] Whistlin’ past the graveyard Steppin’ on a crack I’m a mean motherhubba Papa one eyed jack [Verse 5] What you think is sunshine is just a twinkle in my eye I got a ring around my finger called the 4th of July When I get lonesome, a tear falls from my cheek There’s gonna be an ocean in the middle of the week [Chorus] Whistlin’ past the graveyard Steppin’ on a crack Mean motherhubba Papa one eyed jack , [Verse 6] I come in on the night train with an arm full of box cars On the wings of a magpie across a hooligan night I’m gonna tear off a rainbow and wear it for a tie I never told the truth so how in the hell can I tell a lie? [Chorus] Whistlin’ past the graveyard Steppin’ on a crack I’m a mean motherhubba Papa one eyed jack] |
