Оригинальный текст песни The Tooth Fairy
Melody lost a tooth the other night
& I only had a twenty on me
Clare was in Wisconsin seeing her ma
‘cause she just had surgery
So after I tucked Melody into bed
& waited a while ‘til she was asleep
I put on my shoes & I slipped out the back
& walked to the liquor store
Now I'd just intended to break my twenty
so I'd have a dollar to put under her pillow
I figured a 6 - pack of High Life would do the trick
as well as a candy bar would
So back to the house with the 6 - pack in hand
A ten & a one in my wallet
I crept through the back door to Melody's room
but found her bed empty
Oh, I said her name & I switched on the light
& panicked & shouting I searched through the house
Just as I thought I should call the police
I heard Melody through the window
I ran out the front door as she turned to me
her bare little feet on the street
& through her sobbing she asked me
“Where did you go
Where did you go, Dad
I couldn't find you”
