Sulfur To Sugarcane
作詞:T-bone Burnett, Elvis Costello
It's not very far from Sulfur to Sugarcane Everywhere I travel the pretty girls call my name I give them a squeeze and they shoot me a wink I buy their hard-headed husbands a long cool drink
You better come up smelling sweet 'Cause you're a long time stinking It's a little too late to complain It's not very far from Sulfur to Sugarcane
Now if you catch my eye and you find that it runs down your leg It's like striking a match pretty hard upon a powder keg They tell you from the borders to the waters of the gulf If you take all the sugar, you will end up in the sulfur
And you're burning, hello baby I'm pleased to meet you I wouldn't do you wrong, honey, I wouldn't cheat you, honey When can I see you again? Wrap you up in cellophane It's not very far from Sulfur to Sugarcane
It's not very far from Sulfur to Sugarcane When your eyes fill up with brine 'Cause you're drowning in wine It's like the last days of Rome With the despots and divine
And there's no place like home For a little doll from China It's a little too late to complain It's not very far from Sulfur to Sugarcane
You can go west to Texas Go east to Mississippi You can run out of money You can run out of pity Throw open your purse Until you're crying for mercy
Go to Alabama, escape Louisiana I'm digging like a miner North and South Carolina And then if you continue You will end up in Virginia

Until they gargle with the finest champagne They can't get the grape and the grain It's not very far from Sulfur to Sugarcane
It's not very far from Sulfur to Sugarcane If I could find a piano Here in Bloomington, Indiana I would play it with my toes Until the girls all take their clothes off
The women knock upon my door in odd and even numbers But none of them as wild as I've discovered in Columbus I gave up married women 'cause I heard it was a sin But now I'm back in Pittsburgh, I might take it up again
Because they gargle with the finest champagne They can't get the grape and the grain It's not very far from Sulfur to Sugarcane
It's not very far from Sulfur to Sugarcane Up in Syracuse, I was falsely accused But I'm not here to hurt you I'm here to steal your virtue
Down in Bridgeport The women will kill you for sport But in Worcester, Massachusetts They love my sauce
The women in Poughkeepsie Take their clothes off when they're tipsy But I hear in Ypsilanti They don't wear any panties
Once they gargle with the finest champagne They hitch up their skirts and exclaim It's not very far, sugar, it's not very far, sugar Pour a little sugar on me, sugar It's not very far from Sulfur to Sugarcane
