Just a girl who can't say no
And her sweetheart on parole
Parents named her Jupiter
To bless her with a lucky soul

He's a boy who never cried
When they locked him up inside
And she nicknamed him her 'Teardrop'
For the tattoo by his eye

Now she's sleeping in her bed
And he's sleeping in her bed
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop

She divines by radio
Pushing buttons show to show
And she wonders 'bout the fate of
Lovers in the barrio

She forgets after a while
When she tunes in on the dial
Jackie Wilson's lonely Teardrops
And she drives another mile

Now she's sleeping in her bed
And he's sleeping in her bed
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop

And they want to have a child
Walk together down the aisle
But the world they live in is mean
And it's built on sheer denial

The phone rings it's for her
Got to see you Jupiter
I'm in trouble with the law
Bring my 38 caliber

Now she's sleeping in her bed
As she pulls the phone plug dead, yeah
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop, oh

And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
And it's Jupiter and Tear, oh
And it's Jupiter and Tear, oh
