Jupiter and Teardrop

[Verse 1]
Just a girl who can't say no
And her sweetheart on parole
Parents named her Jupiter
To bless her with a lucky soul

[Verse 2]
He's a boy who never cried
When they locked him up inside
And she nicknamed him her teardrop
For the tattoo by his eye

[Chorus]
Now she's sleeping in her bed
And he's sleeping in her bed
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop

[Verse 3]
She divines by radio
Pushing buttons show to show
And she wonders 'bout the fate of
Lovers in the barrio

[Verse 4]
She forgets after a while
When she tunes in on the dial
Jackie Wilson's Lonely Teardrops
And she drives another mile

[Chorus]
Now she's sleeping in her bed
And he's sleeping in her bed
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 5]
And they want to have a child
Walk together down the aisle
But the world they live in is mean
And it's built on sheer denial

[Verse 6]
The phone rings it's for her
Gotta see ya Jupiter
I'm in trouble with the law
Bring my 38 caliber

[Chorus]
Now she's sleeping in her bed
As she pulls the phone plug dead, dead
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
Oh, and it's Jupiter and Teardrop

[Outro]
And it's Jupiter and Tear
Ugh
And it's Jupiter and Tear
Oh oh
Ju-huh
