| [00:24.22] |
Well I used to drive a cab you know |
| [00:29.34] |
I heard a siren scream |
| [00:33.52] |
Pulled over to the corner |
| [00:36.55] |
And I fell into a dream |
| [00:45.98] |
There were two men eating pennies |
| [00:50.81] |
And three young girls who cried |
| [00:55.40] |
The West coast is falling |
| [00:58.45] |
I see rocks in the sky |
| [01:05.51] |
The preacher took his bible |
| [01:09.29] |
And laid it on the stool |
| [01:12.91] |
He said: with the congregation running |
| [01:16.39] |
Why should I play the fool |
| [01:36.24] |
Well I used to be a woman you know |
| [01:42.05] |
I took you for a ride |
| [01:45.93] |
I let you fly my airplane |
| [01:48.99] |
It looked good for your pride |
| [01:53.99] |
'Cause you're the kind of man you know |
| [01:59.11] |
Who likes what he says |
| [02:02.99] |
I wonder what's it's like |
| [02:04.13] |
To be so far over my head |
| [02:12.51] |
Well the lady made the wedding |
| [02:16.45] |
And she brought along the ring |
| [02:20.07] |
She got down on her knees |
| [02:24.04] |
And said: Let's get on with this thing |
| [02:45.07] |
Well I used to be a folk singer |
| [02:50.21] |
Keeping managers alive |
| [02:54.38] |
When you saw me on a corner |
| [02:56.97] |
And told me I was jive |
| [03:05.03] |
So I unlocked your mind you know |
| [03:09.66] |
To see what I could see |
| [03:13.04] |
If you guarantee the postage |
| [03:15.65] |
I'll mail you back the key |
| [03:24.88] |
Well I woke up in the morning |
| [03:28.40] |
With an arrow through my nose |
| [03:31.57] |
There was an Indian in the corner |
| [03:35.25] |
Tryin' on my clothes |
| [04:17.10] |
Well I used to be asleep you know |
| [04:22.65] |
With blankets on my bed |
| [04:28.44] |
I stayed there for a while |
| [04:31.30] |
'Til they discovered I was dead |
| [04:38.16] |
The coroner was friendly |
| [04:43.76] |
And I liked him quite a lot |
| [04:47.98] |
If I hadn't 've been a woman |
| [04:51.55] |
I guess I'd never have been caught |
| [04:59.66] |
They gave me back my house and car |
| [05:03.58] |
And nothing more was said |
| [05:43.85] |
Well I was driving down the freeway |
| [05:47.83] |
When my car ran out of gas |
| [05:51.76] |
Pulled over to the station |
| [05:54.08] |
But I was afraid to ask |
| [06:02.19] |
The servicemen were yellow |
| [06:05.36] |
And the gasoline was green |
| [06:08.90] |
Although I knew I couldn't |
| [06:11.02] |
I thought that I was gonna scream |
| [06:18.18] |
That was on my last trip to Tulsa |
| [06:22.51] |
Just before the snow |
| [06:25.52] |
If you ever need a ride there |
| [06:29.10] |
Be sure to let me know |
| [07:31.12] |
I was chopping down a palm tree |
| [07:37.48] |
When a friend dropped by to ask |
| [07:41.53] |
If I would feel less lonely |
| [07:45.34] |
If he helped me swing the axe |
| [07:57.27] |
I said: No it's not a case of being lonely |
| [08:02.00] |
We have here |
| [08:06.94] |
I've been working on this palm tree |
| [08:10.81] |
For eighty seven years |
| [08:39.47] |
I said: No it's not a case of being lonely |
| [08:45.92] |
We have here |
| [08:49.10] |
I've been working on this palm tree |
| [08:55.29] |
For eighty seven years |
| [09:03.53] |
He said: Go get lost |
| [09:06.57] |
And walked towards his Cadillac |
| [09:12.82] |
I chopped down the palm tree |
| [09:16.15] |
And it landed on his back |
