Me and you used to be like brothers On the nights we got drunk to each other You know me, I used to have some wit It ended up in a shit-filled sandpit We come from across the border We drink the six mile water This mongrel needs a new home This mongrel needs a new home That time when things got better We'd take trips across the wire Like the night we took the mad acid Swore we saw the city hall on fire We come from across the border We drink the six mile water This mongrel needs a new home This mongrel needs a new home I'm sorry, I'm sorryI'm sorry, but I'm not ready for home Bukowski Day, I'm gonna miss it We'd get together each month for a day All the memories I have are Decked out in Presbyterian gray We came from across the border We drank the six mile water This mongrel needs a new home This mongrel needs a new home I'm sorry, I'm sorryI'm sorry, but I'm not ready for home Now, me and you don't talk of one another It never really started out that way I always meant to write you a letter I always meant to call you some day We came from across the water We drank the six mile water This mongrel needs a new home This mongrel needs a new home I'm sorry, I'm sorryI'm sorry, but I'm not ready for home I'm sorry, I'm sorryI'm sorry, I'm sorry
