Red Red Nose

my love is like a red red nose
he runs his mouth & sleeps in his clothes
he done gone south oh that he blows

my love is like a red red nose
my love is like a crying shame
he gives right in & takes the blame no dimes or nickels to his name

my love is like a crying shame
a stinking drunk a blinking blip
a steamer trunk on a sinking ship
a trickling tear a wrinkled rip
getting by on a wink & a prayer

my love is like a memory
a three-speed bike a christmas tree
lights up the world when he sings to me
my love is a christmas tree
