The Major Lyrics
Down the street on one leg
A major with a mouth
Is standing on a corner near a train to somewhere South
He whistles when he speaks, it's the only time he does
A petty two-bit thief always in and out of love
His eyes are bloody red
It's part of his routine
Home for Sunday dinner with a widow from beneath
A silver serpent tongue
A face made for a mother's love
A murder in his pocket with no skin to cover up
(Ride, he rides)
(Two-bit thief)
(Train down South)
(Serpent tongue)
A major with a mouth
Is standing on a corner near a train to somewhere South
He whistles when he speaks, it's the only time he does
A petty two-bit thief always in and out of love
His eyes are bloody red
It's part of his routine
Home for Sunday dinner with a widow from beneath
A silver serpent tongue
A face made for a mother's love
A murder in his pocket with no skin to cover up

I know the lyrics aren't complete; I couldn't make out a lot of the heavier parts. I did the best I could with the rest, though. Enjoy.
