3,6,9 song is from Sun, the 9th album by American musician Cat Power and her first album of all-original material since 2006’s The Greatest.
Chan Marshall has said that she wrote this song upon waking up with a really bad hangover.
[Verse 1]
I feel, I feel tired, awake all night
Head so heavy like a wastebasket
I feel choke, emotionally broke
In the gutter and I'm still looking down
I feel alone
[Verse 2]
I want out, I want on my own
I want everything I own
I find letters, pictures
Memories of what you can't seem to let go
In your bedside table, in your pocket
In your wallet, you know
[Verse 3]
Abusive, a stranger in bed
Elusive, forget everything you said
You gotta right to have that hand you own
But the moment you hit it you're on your own
You're ready to go
You're wanting out, you're wanting to hit the road
Your love is like a steamboat running, I need to float
I don't need five times a day
To tell me to go
[Chorus]
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
[Bridge]
All the things you really wanted
Everything you want
All the things you really wanted
Everything you want
[Chorus]
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
[Bridge]
All the things you really wanted
Everything you want
All the things you really wanted
Everything you want
[Chorus]
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
Three, six, nine, you drink wine
Monkey on your back, you feel just fine
(Three, six, nine, you drink wine)
(Monkey on your back, you feel just fine)
[Outro]
Fuck me
Fuck me
Fuck me
Fuck me
Ahh
