You got seven scarlet veils
I got a hammer and I got nails
And I've been pounding
Lookin' for a stud
Nothin' but the best for my girl
A ruby and a rose, a strawberry swirl
My love it started as a leak
Graduated into a flood
Pretty soon I'll be fallin'
I can hear my own voice callin'
Drownin' in a sea of homemade blood

Homemade blood
Cheap red wine
Spillin' out the alley
And the creek is high
Steal a heart
You pay a fine
Homemade blood's fallin' from the sky

You got lips as red as sin
You got a heart that I want in
And we've been stranded
In the fog and in the mud
Nobody looks like you
Pink slippers and a rose tattoo
My love it started as a leak
Graduated into a flood
Pretty soon I'll be fallin'
I can feel my own heart sinkin'
Down into a sea of homemade blood
