Bump d'Bump

Play me a game like Blind Man's dance And bind my eyes with ignorance Bump d'bump bump d'bump. Tell my life with a liquor sign Or a cooking spoon from the five-and-dime And a junkie reel in two/four time Bump d'bump bump d'bump. Call me a name from an ugly south Like liver lips and satchel mouth Bump d'bump bump d'bump. I'll play possum and close my eyes To your greater sins and my lesser lies That way I share my nation's prize Bump d'bump bump d'bump. I may be last in the welfare line Below the rim where the sun don't shine But getting up stays on my mind Bump d'bump bump d'bump.
