Stepped on a Crack - Live at the Wetlands, New York, NY - September 1990

Lyrics

It's a funny way to tell you baby,
 What could I do?
 I've been talkin to the preacher,
 And he sent me to you.
 There's a penny on the sidewalk,
 But you stepped on a crack
 Mama's singing in the kitchen,
 But she's clutchin' her back
 There's a funny wind a-blowin'
 Down the rays you your hair
 Everybody doin' cartwheels baby,
 But you're still in bed
 You can tell me it's your nature, girl
 But I don't buy that
 I can tell you like to lie
 Just by the tilt of your hat
 One guy's laughing,
 One guy's weeping,
 One guy's twitchin'
 And you lay sleeping
 Tell me why you sleeping baby
 One guy's laughing, mama,
 One guy's weeping,
 One guy's twitchin' down on the floor, mama
 Tell me why you sleeping baby
 I've been talking in the kitchen,
 And I'm skinning a cat
 I know you you wanna see my jackknife,
 But I'm using a bat
 Put the mutton on the table,
 There's a fork by your plate
 Someone told me you're starving,
 But I know you just ate.
 One guy's laughing,
 One guy's weeping,
 One guy's twitchin'
 And you lay sleepin'
