lyrics

My Sunday boots are Holy the whole week through
Except for my mind I got nothing to lose
3k Short is my saving grace
I came down with love
But it was just a brief case
If it weren't for the blues
I'd be seeing red
If it weren't for rock'n'roll honey
I'd be dead
But I gotta lotta rockin' that I gotta do
I gotta lotta fuckin' to do
Before I'm through
Yeah

I'm tougher than Woodpecker's lips
So don't give me no shit if that's your trip
Compared to me the Devil's a sissy
'Cause I'm tougher than Woodpecker's lips Missy

I sucked Satan's dick just to get a hit
Yeah I took a lickin' but I kept on tickin'
I'm a full house of 52 cards
But I'm jack of clubs and gigs and bars
I need a man bad enough to treat me good
I need a man tough enough to chop that wood
I need a man like a meat axe
To grind my heart of stone
I need a man with balls
As big as my own
Yeah

I'm tougher than Woodpecker's lips
So don't give me no shit if that's your trip
Compared to me the Devil's a sissy
'Cause I'm tougher than Woodpecker's lips Missy

You need a check up
From the neck up
Go eat some concrete and harden the heck up
Here's the clincher
I come on slow like dementia
Come out in the back room baby
Tell 'em Typhoid Mary sent ya
Yeah

I'm tougher than Woodpecker's lips
So don't give me no shit if that's your trip
Compared to me the Devil's a sissy
'Cause I'm tougher than Woodpecker's lips Missy
