lyrics

Not so high and lonesome as a question mark implied
Not as wild as mercury, but close
Doesn’t get much lower than the waterline at Doubtful Sound
Driving rhythms drive me to the coast
Sally showed up in the mail
When I helped her post her bail
Looking spotless, looking pale
Sally followed me around
To the shore and back to town
She drew the crescent, drew it down
She took me down to Doubtful Sound
Poisonous and venomous marine organisms
Clothbound books embossed with skates and rays
A butterfly distraction on a Sunday in a plumbing shop
The ringing in my ears goes on for days
Sally’s long and tall and blonde
Sally plays me like a song
When we turn each other on
Sally fits me like a crown
Sally sure does get around
She’ll be my verb and I’m her noun
She took me down to Doubtful Sound
Look into her cat’s eye, you can see she’s not too deep
But she’s higher and she’s brighter than the moon
Doesn’t drive a Mustang, but she overdrives with overtones
That rise and fall like swells in the monsoon
Sally joins me at the hip
Sally goes down like a ship
Turn her up and let her rip
Sally followed me around
To the shore and back to town
Can’t help but wonder where we’re bound
She took me down to Doubtful Sound
She took me down to Doubtful Sound
She took me down to Doubtful Sound
She took me down, she took me down
She took me down
She took me down
She took me down
