| From a phone booth in Vegas
|
| Jessie calls at five a. |
| m
|
| To tell me how she’s tired of all of them
|
| She says, «Baby, I’ve been thinking about a trailer by the sea
|
| We could go to Mexico; |
| You, the cat and Me
|
| We’ll drink tequila and look for seashells
|
| Now doesn’t that sound sweet»
|
| Oh Jessie you always do this every time I get back on my feet
|
| Jessie paint your pictures
|
| About how it’s gonna be
|
| By now I should know better
|
| Your dreams are never free
|
| But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea
|
| Oh Jessie you can always sell any dream to me
|
| Oh Jessie you can always sell any dream to me
|
| She asked me how the cat’s been
|
| I say «Moses, he’s just fine»
|
| But he used to think about you, all the time
|
| We finally took your pictures down off the wall
|
| Jessie, how do you always seem to know just when to call
|
| She says «Get your stuff together, bring Moses and drive real fast»
|
| And I listened to her promise
|
| «I swear to God this time it’s gonna last»
|
| Jessie paint your pictures
|
| About how it’s gonna be
|
| By now I should know better
|
| Your dreams are never free
|
| But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea
|
| Oh Jessie you can always sell any dream to me
|
| I’ll love you in the sunshine
|
| Lay you down in the warm, white sand
|
| And who knows maybe this time
|
| Things will turn out just the way you planned
|
| Jessie paint your pictures
|
| About how it’s gonna be
|
| By now I should know better
|
| Your dreams are never free
|
| But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea
|
| Oh Jessie you can always sell any dream to me
|
| Oh Jessie you can always sell any dream to me |
