Things to Do in Denver When Youre Dead by Warren Zevon Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1991

[Verse 1]
I called up my friend Leroy on the phone
I said, "Buddy, I'm afraid to be alone
'Cause I got some weird ideas in my head
About things to do in Denver when you're dead"

[Verse 2]
I was working on a steak the other day
And I saw Waddy in the Rattlesnake Cafe
Dressed in black, tossin' back a shot of rye
Finding things to do in Denver when you die

[Chorus]
You won't need a cab to find a priest
Maybe you should find a place to stay
Some place where they never change the sheets
And you just roll around Denver all day

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Yeah, Leroy says there's something you should know
Not everybody has a place to go
And home is just a place to hang your head
And dream of things to do in Denver when you're dead
[Chorus]
You won't need a cab to find a priest
Maybe you should find a place to stay
Some place where they never change the sheets
And you just roll around Denver all day
You just roll around Denver all day
