lyrics

Jockeys, politicians, and restaurateurs
Phony people with phony cures
Lovesick fishermen with lovesick lures
Have they been devoured by love?

Fisher cats and dirty rats
Criminals and diplomats
Memphis Slim and Minnesota fats
Have they been devoured by love?
Have they

Crooks breaking rocks in the hot sun
Wanted men out on the run
thrill seeking teenagers just looking for fun
Have they been devoured by love?

Swing dancers, flappers, and vulgar burlesques
Cubicle dwellers alone at their desks
Butchers in basements with blood on their clothes
Pretty girls hunched over painting their toes
Tattooed hunters and hillbilly gun slingers
Red eyed hornets with venomous stingers
Long haired lionhearted folk singers
Have they been devoured by love?
Have they

Soldiers stuck in desert holes
Amateur chefs with casseroles
Drunk drivers on cruise control
Have they been devoured by love?

Birdwatchers chasing a sky full of hawks
A stuttering student ashamed when he talks
Astrologers making it up as they go
Sugar Ray Leonard And old smoking joe
Snake charmers, Buskers, and a crass organ grinder
Rattlesnakes and a slithering sidewinder
If she’s lost, I swear that i’ll find her
And she’ll be devoured by love
