One old brown shoe falls in slow motion And the bedsprings hover right above your head As bed springs do, when you're beneath them Someone else just climbed into your bed By the time she thought you'd probably got to Phoenix She'd arranged for your shoes to be filled Well, you've got your pride and a blue-steel '45 Waited for the other shoe to fall And you waited for the other shoe to fall Dig a double grave out in the meadow And you'll curse the rain that turns the dirt to mud You'll take 35 south towards Laredo And you'll try to find a doctor that'll prescribe an elixir That'll make everything better except your late wife and her lover By the time she thought you'd probably got to Phoenix She'd sealed her fate and gotten herself killed You've got your pride and a blue-steel '45 Waited for the other shoe to fall And you waited for the other shoe to fall And you waited for the other shoe to fall
