She struck me as bitter-sweet sitting cross-legged outside the 7/11 By an old Bratwurst wagon at the wrong end of a nondescript New York City street Smelling of onions and pickle and last month's lipstick Said she'd come down with the rain from the black hills She struck me as kinda neat in that cruciform pose Halfway between hell and heaven Someplace halfway from a jeroboam and a hooch flagon With broken sandals on dirty feet She saw me as a cruiser Thought I was a possible trick Who was also washed down with the rain Only I was from Nebraska Other that that we were kinda the same And I asked her if she was available for a light lunch? Oh Corrina, those songs of love and hate inscribed in your blue tattoos The shoulders twitch, the junkie itch, are handing me out the clues Somehow the strains of the NYPD choir trying to sing up Fisherman's Blues Seemed to hang over the onion and pickle, condensing in the boil of Bratwurst And sizzle of the pork fat. I thought "That's that" "Corrina, let's go be fishermen, let's cast out the line, set the course There's gotta be some kinda fisherman somewhere in Fisherman's Wharf" Oh Corrina, those songs of love and hate enmeshed in your blue tattoos The shoulders twitch, the junkie itch, are handing out the clues
