LYRICS

HUNKER DOWN, HONEY

We've got beans in the cellar and love in the air

The radio's warm and I fixed up your chair

The blackout's in place and the kettle's on tight

So hunker down honey we'll ride out the night



Hunker down honey don't you fret

The world's gone wild but we ain't done yet

With a kiss and a can of good old stew

I'll ration my heart just for you



The Geiger is ticking the lights like to flicker

But I'm still your gal and I brought extra liquor

I patched up your coat with thread from my skirt

And I dusted the fallout right off of your shirt



Hunker down honey hold me close

We're sweeter than a jar of government toast

The world outside might crumble and break

But I've got you sugar and fruitcake to bake



So let 'em drop their warnings let sirens wail

Let the wind tear through every half buried rail

We've got four bunker walls and a warm tin of love

And the stars still blink somewhere up above



Hunker down honey don't you fear

The air's gone thick but our love's still clear

From the crater to the moon we'll dance in the gloom

Just two little lovers in one little room
