Tango Till They're Sore Lyrics - Madeleine Peyroux

Well ya play that Tarantella 

All the hounds they start to roar 

And the boys all go to hell 

Then the Cubans hit the floor 

They climb along the pipeline 

They tango till they're sore 

They take apart their nightmares 

And they leave them by the door. 

Let me fall out of the window 

With confetti in my hair 

Deal out jacks or better 

On a blanket by the stairs 

I'll tell you all my secrets 

But I lie about my past 

So send me off to bed forever more.

Make sure they play my theme song 

I guess daisies will have to do 

Just get me to New Orleans 

And paint shadows on the pews 

Cut the skin on that pig 

Kick the drum and let me down 

Put my clarinet beneath your bed 

Till I get back in town. 

Let me fall out of the window 

With confetti in my hair 

Deal out jacks or better 

On a blanket by the stairs 

I'll tell you all my secrets 

But I lie about my past 

So send me off to bed forever more.

Yes, she'll be all in calico 

The color of a doll 

Wave the flag on cadillac day 

Hang a skillet on the wall 

Cut me a switch or hold you breath 

Till the sun goes down 

Write my name on the hood 

Send me off to another town. 

Let me fall out of the window 

With confetti in my hair 

Deal out jacks or better 

On a blanket by the stairs 

I'll tell you all my secrets 

But I lie about my past 

So send me off to bed forever more. 

So send me off to bed forever more.
