The TV is flickering in the background
The v-hold is a river of black and white 
dragging me through channels
and perfect worlds of guiding light.

Jane's getting pretty in her uniform, 
while her cigarette is burning down
in the ash tray made of amber glass
sad glass dressed in brown. 

Chorus: 
but she's got green eyeshadow and red lips
long dark hair and nice hips..x2

The front porch is sagging and he don't give a damn
he's throwing furniture out the front door and 
a hard rain's a comin it's the season of the flood,
the Texas sky is opening up
but she's got

but she's got green eyeshadow and red lips
long dark hair and nice hips..x2

And a hard rain's a coming
it's the season of the flood
The Texas sky is opening up.
