2.99 Cent Blues Lyrics - 11:11 - Regina Spektor

Mmmm-ahhh 

Somewhere far away 

Where I roam 

There live my buffalo twin 

In our twin buffalo home sweet home 

He take good care of my native son 

And he call me by my native name 

And he, he even lets us drink spring water on Sundays 

Hey, 2.99, 2.99 a gallon 

2.99, 2.99 a gallon 

And somewhere further down the road 

Where I also roam 

There live my caterpillar cousin 

Beneath a fancy engraved tomb headstone

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

In the middle of a southern town 

Beneath a cemetery burial plot 

And he, he don't pay rent no more, no more 

But he sure likes the, sure likes the spot 

Oh, he sure likes, sure likes the spot 

Oh, he sure likes the spot, sure likes the spo-aht 

Dun-ah, ah, dun-ah, ah, dun-ah-dun-nah 

But in the furthest place I've ever known 

Where even I so rarely roam 

There lives a boy who just come back from war 

His flesh was wounded but he made it back home 

His mother calls him by his given name 

And the neighbors whisper how he prefers to be alone 

And he gets, he gets nightmares about boys dripping blood sold for 2.99, 2.99 a gallon 

Come on, just 2.99, 2.99 a gallon 

Pay up, yeah! 

2.99, 2.99, a gah-guh-guh-guh-guh-guh-guh-guh-guh-guh-guh-guh-guh-guh-guh-guhhh-guh-guh-guuuh-guh-guh-guuuh-gah-gah-gah-gah-gah 

Gah-gah-gah-gah-gahhhw

But when I get me all real tired 

And I got no more strength to roam 

I catch me a horse-driven carriage ride 

From a local man named Ethan Frome 

He don't say much as he tips his hat 

And he carries his body as heavy as a lead 

And he could have been still flying through the snow on his sled 

But the wife was in bed and the horses had to be fed 

Besides, it's 2.99, 2.99 a story 

Come on, it's 2.99, 2.99 a story 

Pay up, yo, it's 2.99, 2.99 a story 

Come on, baby 2.99, 2.99 a story 

Come on, y'alls 

2.99, 2.99, 2.99, 2.99, 2.99, 2.99, 2.99, nuh-99, ah, ah! 

2.99, 2.99, 2.99, 2.99, 2.99, nuh-99-na-na-na-na-na-nigh 

Oh, 2.99, 2.99 a story 

Pay up, y'alls 2.99, 2.99 a story 

Pay up, it's just 2.99, 2.99 a story 

Oh, but it's just 2.99 

2.99-na-naa-na-naa-na-naa 

Na-na-na-na-naa 

A gallon
