Dead leaves and the dirty ground When I know you're not around Shiny tops and soda pops When I hear your lips make a sound (when I hear your lips make a sound) Thirty notes in the mailbox Will tell you that I'm coming home And I think I'm gonna stick around For a while so your'e not alone (for a while so you're not alone) If you can hear a piano fall You can hear me coming down the hall If I could just hear your pretty voice I don't think I need to see at all (don't think I need to see at all) Soft hair and a velvet tongue I want to give you what you give to me And every breath that is in your lungs Is a tiny little gift to me (is a tiny little gift to me) I didnt feel so bad till the Sun went down Then I come home No one to wrap my arms around (wrap my arms around) Well any man with a microphone Can tell you what he loves the most And you know why you love at all If you're thinking of the Holy Ghost (if you're thinking of the Holy Ghost)

"Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" foi lançada em julho de 2001 como single da faixa de álbum White Blood Cells da banda The White Stripes.
A canção conta com um timbre de guitarra extremamente cru, gerado pelo pedal Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Pi.
Em 2006, a faixa foi regravada por Chris Thile em seu álbum How to Grow a Woman from the Ground.
O videoclipe, dirigido por Michel Gondry, mostra Jack White retornando à casa destruída de Jack e Meg White, enquanto cenas da festa que causou a destruição e de momentos anteriores do relacionamento são projetadas e sobrepostas ao cenário.
