One Deep River, out now: markknopfler.lnk.to/odr
The Santa Ana's been kicking up sand
All the way from Utah to La La Land
Sways the fairy lights up in the boughs
The finger-lickers who test the blow
And make predictions for best in show
Say the smart money ain’t on your dog now
Ain’t on your dog now
Cinderella’s in the square
They wait in line to see her there
This little tootsie she’s showing 'em how
Fresh out of fame school class
This little hoofer means to kick some ass
And the smart money ain’t on your dog now
Ain’t on your dog now
Helicopters overhead
Showbiz kids are getting wed
They already sold the shoot
The ring going on her finger
The slipper on her foot
Down on the river the wind’s turned cool
It’s blowing all the way from Boston to Liverpool
At least the summer knows when to take a bow
Groovy nights and golden days
Feel they could might just slip away
And the smart money ain’t on your dog now
Ain’t on your dog now
