Lyrics
Dogs start screaming when you?re getting off
All that howling, all for naught
All the neighbors, one and all
Called to tell me they?re concerned
Same old setup, same old shame
Same old same old, same old same
All I can tell you is what they saw
While they watched your bodies burn
Oh, Carrie Jo, what do you wanna
What do you wanna know
Carrie Jo, what do you wanna know
Bed?s still soaking where you two were laid
Smells like the desert after a rain
And after the sheriffs all tried in vain
I found Romeo in the ferns
He ain?t no sugar, he ain?t no Sting
He ain?t your papa, not with that thing
All I can tell you is what I saw
While he fumbled through your purse
Oh, Carrie Jo, what do you wanna
What do you wanna know
Carrie Jo, what do you wanna know
Think it?s time I was moving on
And let you jingle with your john
You?re still a precious child of God
One day you?ll wonder what that?s worth
One day you?ll wonder what that?s worth
Carrie Jo, what do you wanna
What do you wanna know
Carrie Jo, what do you wanna know
