White Stripes - The Hardest Button To Button lyrics

We started living in an old house

My ma gave birth and we were checking it out

It was a baby boy

So we bought him a toy

It was a ray gun

And it was 1981

We named him "baby"

He had a toothache

He started crying

It sounded like an earthquake

It didn't last long

Because I stopped it

I grabbed a rag doll

And stuck some little pins in it

Now we're a family

And we're alright now

We got some money and a little place

To fight now

We don't know you

And we don't owe you

But if you see us around

I got something else to show you

Well it's easy when you don't know better

You think it's sleazy?

Then put it in a short letter

We keep warm

But there's just something wrong with you

Just feel like you're the hardest button to button
