(
Patty Griffin)
We were drinking like the Irish but we were drinking scotchbartender turns on a movie, everybody turned to watchand every single eye was gleaming when they reached the final scenewell at least mine did, here's looking at you kid
You know it's a mad mission under difficult conditionsnot everybody makes it to the loving cup
It's a mad mission but I got the ambitionmad, mad mission sign me up
I think I've seen the look before, yes, it's kind of non-committalit says come hither baby but then he's hard wood to whittlehe says it don't mean a thing but still somehow it doeshe'd like you to join the club that likes to saythere's no such thing as love
It's a mad mission under difficult conditionsnot everybody makes it to the loving cup
It's a mad mission but I got the ambitionmad, mad mission sign me upsometimes you find yourself flying low at nightflying blind and looking for any sign of lightyou're cold and scared and all aloneyou'd do anything just make it home
It's a mad mission under difficult conditionsnot everybody makes it to the loving cup
It's a mad mission but I got the ambitionmad, mad mission sign me upsign me up
