Black Cow

Steely Dan

In the corner
Of my eye
I saw you in Rudy's
You were very highYou were high
It was a cryin' disgrace
They saw your faceOn the counter
By your keys
Was a book of numbers
And your remediesOne of these
Surely will screen out of sorrow
But where are you tomorrowI can't cry anymore
While you run around
Break away
Just when it seems so clear
That it's over now
Drink your big black cow
And get out of hereDown to green street
There you go
Lookin' so outrageous
And they tell you soYou should know
How all the pros play the game?
Then you change your nameLike a gangster
On the run
You will stagger homeward
To your precious oneI'm the one
Who must make everything right
Talk it out till daylightI don't care anymore
Why you run around
Break away
Just when it seems so clear
That it's over now
Drink your big black cow
And get out of hereI can't cry anymore
While you run around
Break away
Just when it seems so clear
That it's over now
Drink your big black cow
And get out of hereSo outrageous...
So outrageous...
So outrageous... (fade out)
