Outside the Door Songtext

von Jay Farrar

Heard about circumstances
Heard about the devil's son-in-law
Heard about the high sheriff from hell
Heard about the great migration
Heard about the barrel house
And ragtime in the parlor room downstairs

Can you hear the hum outside the door?
Can you hear the hum outside the door?
Can you hear the hum outside the door?
Can you hear the hum? Can you hear the hum?

Steady roll and jelly jaw heard about the hoover ville
Heard about the long gone stevedores
Heard about prohibition
Heard about the sukey jump wasn't there to hear
"Come on in my kitchen"

Can you hear the strum outside the door?
Can you hear the strum outside the door?
Can you hear the strum outside the door?
Can you hear the strum? Can you hear the strum?

Heard about a gaslight square
Heard about down deep Morgan
Heard you can't find mill creek anywhere

Heard about circumstances
Heard about the devil's son-in-law
Heard about the high sheriff from hell

Can you hear the drum outside the door?
Can you hear the drum outside the door?
Can you hear the drum outside the door?
Can you hear the drum? Can you hear the drum?
