Jessie

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
'bout a trailer by the sea.
We could go to Mexico,
you, the cat, and me,
we'll drink tequila and look for sea shells.
Now doesn't that sound sweet?"
Oh, Jessie, you always do this
every time I get back on my feet.

Refrain

Jessie,
paint your pictures
'bout how it's gonna be.
By now I should know better,
your dreams are never free.
But tell me all about our lttle trailer by the sea;
Jessie,
you can always sell any dream to me.
Oh, Jessie,
you can always sell any dream to me.

She asks 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 of the wall.
Jessie,
how do you always seem to know just when you call?"
She says,
" Get your stuff together,
bring Moses and drive real fast!"
And I listen to her promise,
" I swear to God this time it's gonna last!"

Refrain

I'll love you in the sunshine,
lay you down in the warm white sand.
And who knows, maybe this time
things'll turn out just the way you planned.
