Jump, Jive An' Wail Lyrics - Big Bad Voodoo Daddy

She's got house plants to keep her company 

Bought her a goldfish - she named it after me. 

We look at old photographs of lovers come and gone 

I ask her if it makes her sad she said son you've got so much to learn 

Juliette 

Love the life that you have kept 

Juliette 

Smiling on your dying bed 

Juliette 

You've got a grace about you yet 

Juliette 

Smoking her last cigarette 

3 is tea time, she puts on Patsy Cline 

Cuts the crust off sandwiches and mentions how she don't mind dying 

Tells stories about Pearl and Earl - Best friends that she once had 

We do the dishes then she says it's time for bed 

Juliette 

Love the life that you have kept 

Juliette 

Smiling on your dying bed 

Juliette 

You've got a grace about you yet 

Juliette 

Smoking her last cigarette 

We ate ice cream last night before she slept 

No plans for breakfast except to read the note she left 

Grey and white skies - That day was a blur for me 

She made me promise not to cry, so here is a drink - I drink to thee 

Juliette 

Love the life that you have kept 

Juliette 

Smiling on your dying bed 

Juliettefah 

You've got a grace about you yet 

Juliette 

Smoking her last cigarette 

Juliette
