Listen & view Meat Puppets - Split Myself in Two lyrics & tabs

the man laid his hat on the table
hung his coat up on the wall
sat down to dinner
said as soon as i am able
i'll say something nice to you all

then he took a deck from his pocket
spread em so i saw 'em all
then he turned his back to me shuffled 'em and drew me
the card that said i never would fall

oh mary lou won't you tell me what to do
i got a dollar on the corner and a razor in my shoe
if i don't get an answer
gonna split myself in two

he spun 'till a ton was glistening
turned to me and gave me a smile
he said i'm leaving now
but i want what you owe me
i'll be back in a little while

that was the last time i saw him
hope i never see him again
i know it sounds funny
but i owe him some money
and i really don't want him for a friend
