Beer on the Bedstand

Lyrics
There's a Mexican beer on the bedstand He drinks slowly in the dark There's a girl coming down from the Southside He's going to meet her up in Painter's Park Hallelujah keeps her distance He's too rough when he's all the way up But no one's holding anything and she saw him on the bus He brought back all the jewelry but he's still not with the girl She panhandles up on Hennepin Ave Outside of the Suburban World St. Theresa, reveal yourself I know that you'rŠµ listening in You told me what to do beforŠµ and I need your help again He's flipping cards in a basement bar He's got something sweet in his socks The law's long arm don't reach down here and they've covered up the clocks Mother Mary, please have mercy I'm trying to figure something out 'Cause I'm strung out in Minneapolis and they're expecting me down South Mother Mary, please forgive me I wish with all my heart that Memphis and Minneapolis weren't so far apart I wish Memphis and Minneapolis weren't so damn far apart
