Filipino Box Spring Hog Lyrics - Mule Variations - Tom Waits

Filipino Box Spring Hog 

Well I hung on to Mary's stump 

I danced with a soldier's glee 

With a rum soaked crook 

And a big fat laugh 

I spent my last dollar on thee 

I saw Bill Bones, gave him a yell 

Kehoe spiked the nog 

With a chain link fence 

And a scrap iron jaw 

Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring hog 

Spider rolled in from 

Hollister Burn 

With a one-eyed stolen Mare 

Donned himself with chicken fat 

Sawin on a jaw bone violin there 

Kathleen was sittin down 

In little reds recovery room 

In her criminal underwear bra 

I was naked to the waist 

With my fierce black hound 

And I'm cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog 

Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog 

Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog

Dig a big pit in a dirt alley road 

Fill it with madrone and bay 

Stinks like hell 

And the neighbors complain 

Don't give a hoot what they say 

Slap that hog 

Gotta roll em over twice 

Baste him with a sweeping broom 

You gotta swat them flies 

And chain up the dogs 

Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog 

Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog

Rattle snake piccata with grapes and figs 

Old brown Betty with a yellow wig 

Tain't the mince meat filagree 

And it ain't the turkey neck stew 

And it ain't them bruleed 

Okra seeds though she 

Made them especially for you 

Worse won a prize for her 

Bottom black pie 

The beans got to thrown to the dogs 

Jaheseus Christ I can always 

Make room when they're

Cookin up a Filipino Box Spring Hog
