Raging Bull's Jaw

[Verse 1, Mark Kozelek]

I remember when I first spoke with you

Walking down Jones with your little dog Duey

We were kind to each other and complimentary

I hoped I'd see you again before too long

And then one day again, I saw you with your dog

And a half hour later, we were in your apartment making love

And I knew that day, my life had just begun

And fifteen years later, I still love you a ton

[Verse 2, Rachel Haden]

Being with you has not been a walk in the park

You're around for a week and then you gotta depart

And half the time you come back; you're disheveled with the flu

But somehow, I still have unconditional love for you

And now of late, and you're home all the time

A new adventure, but you're still the same man in my eyes

You overcome obstacles that many can't

You're one-of-a-kind, and you take good care of my dog and my cat

When you're away, I send you the pictures

And when I'm away, I bring you souvenirs

We've been on many adventures through the years

We've had a lot of laughter, and we've had a lot of tears

We love the same movies and many other things

Spending winter in Tahoe and spring in New Orleans

We spend time in bed, and stay in it

And each of us are happy with just a few good friends

[Verse 4, Rachel Haden]

The last few weeks in Southern California

I had fun watching you catch sea bass and sandsharks

And my family loves your humor and the way you treat me

My dad laughed when you told him you got the fish right there and make your own sushimi

Your dad laughed and said he hoped I didn't swallow parasites

I said, "I'm sitting here, ain't I? I think I'll be alright"

Then your mom laughed when I said, "If bears can eat raw fish, then so can I"

They both laughed and said, "Animals are different, human beings can die"

[Outro, both]

I love you baby

On this October night, so stormy and rainy

I love you baby

As true as New Orleans summertime cats are lazy

I love you strongly

As Sonny Liston jab as Ray Leonard [?]

I love you baby

As thick as the fog, as strong as Raging Bull's jaw

[Outro, both, Mark Kozelek, Rachel Haden]

I love you truly, as revel as pure magic, as is [?]

Our love will not tire, unlike mammoth and sabretooth tiger

I love you baby, I am your man, I am your lady

I love you baby, as strong as Coliseum Square Park's oak trees
