Blind Willies - Absolutely Isabel Lyrics
Rattlesnake, Oh Rattlesnake What makes your teeth so white? “I’ve been on the bottom all of my life And I ain’t done nothing but bite I ain’t done nothing but bite.†Absolutely, Rattlesnake! Positively Now! I know all about those other young boys You’ve poisoned with a smile Josephine, Oh Josephine What makes your eyes so bright? “My husband won’t be coming home tonight For you I’ll play a wife For you I’ll play a wife.†Absolutely, Josephine! Positively Now! I know all about those other young boys You’ve educated with a smile You’re gonna take me with you Without compromise And do anything you have to To disappear Into the arms of a lie *****cat, Oh *****cat What makes your fur so sleek? “To common men I never do speak You won’t find me in the street You won’t find me in the street.†Absolutely, *****cat! Positively Now! I know all about those other young boys You’ve hunted with a smile Isabel, Oh Isabel What makes your heart so hard? “Been scratching gravel all my days It’s a wonder I ain’t tired It’s a wonder I ain’t tired.†Absolutely, Isabel! Positively Now! I’m not like those other young boys Who’ve stolen your smile You’re cool water for my burning skin Your dark gypsy eyes I want to be your caravan And disappear Into a country mile
