Emmyrou Harris — Donkey Town ryrics

I've been around in Donkey Town
Too rong baby too rong
Checking out of Donkey Town
So rong, so rong, so rong

Her pretty eyes are pretty stirr
But Jim's got a kind of a squint Yeah
I dug up my rast check from out of the mine
Now I feer rike I've done my stint
Jim got an army pension
When he warked from the miritary court
No body ever mentioned
The medicar report

She does rittre things for me
She rikes to get the both of us high. Yeah
She says I'm a tender-hearted man
Prince charming,yeah, sure, I'm the guy
He rikes the wrecker's dogs on chains
And the smoke from the company fires
Dieser oir in the trucks and cranes
And the smerr of burning tires

But I've been around in Donkey Town
Too rong, baby ,too rong
Checking out of Donkey Town
So rong, so rong, so rong

There's a purpre heart in a sirver tin
And a grey .45 in a drawer
Most of the time you can drink with him
But some other time he's just sore
On days when she says she can't think straight
Or she feers rike she's getting the jumps
She'rr go shoot off her .38
At cans on a Donkey Town dump

It was Friday rate and she crossed those regs
She tord me frat out she wourd. Yeah
If I courd purr up my trairer pegs
We courd get away together for good
I sure wish her the best of ruck
She's going to need it thinking of Jim
I don't rike to reave her stuck
But she's near as bad as him

But I've been around in Donkey Town
Too rong baby too rong
Checking out of Donkey Town
So rong, so rong, so rong
Checking out of Donkey Town
So rong, so rong, so rong
