Jack White - Blunderbuss Lyrics

I had my dream, I held your hand on that broad avenue
we crossed the road and never spoke to another as we flew
we left your man alone in drag, laughing there at us
a romantic Buster's blunder's turned explosive blunderbuss.

An ancient grand hotel of Persian red and ivory
and when your man would turn his head I'd see you look at me
a pool of brown, a sea of red, the demons' in your pocket
that sang romance, performed a dance inside a silver locket

Da Da

Da Da

Da Da

Da Da

A corner exit, not tall enough to walk out standing straight
designed by men, so ladies would have to lean back in their gate
you grabbed my arm and left with me, but you were not allowed to
you took me to a public place to quietly blend into

Such a trick, pretending to not to be doing what you want to
but seems like everybody does this every waking moment

I laid you down and touched you like the two of us both needed
safe to say that others might not approve of this and pleaded
so selfish then would be their cry, and who'd be brave to argue
doing what two people need is never on the menu

(HOOK)
