Well old Dan Tanengraph You can keep your cold dead stare Your pretty lady's waiting out In the coal stained air And I've watched your hair turn grey Throughout the course of One fateful day And she got Shy water in her eyes And she got Shy water in her eyes Well on that creaky wooden porch You can think about what you've lost While some nurse you don't know Brings you paper cups full of pills Well your pretty lady's somewhere Lonely and turning grey Oh, what a mistake you have made And she got Shy water in her eyes And she got Shy water in her eyes Well you can stick to your guns if you please It don't bother me, oh no You can stick to your guns if you need And you need Well if there's a moral here that's to be learned It's not to let a good thing pass you by Well right now you're staring straight ahead Beside some girl with shy water in her eyes And she got Shy water in her eyes And she got Shy water in her eyes Well you can stick to your guns if you please It don't bother me, oh no
