Spanish Pipedream |
She was a level-headed dancer on the road to alcohol |
I was just a soldier on my way to Montreal |
Well, she pressed her chest against me about the time the jukebox broke |
She give me a peck on the back of the neck and these are the words she spoke |
Blow up your TV, throw away your paper |
Go to the country, build you a home |
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches |
Try and find Jesus on your own |
I sat there at the table and I acted real naive |
Cause I knew that topless lady, she had something up her sleeve |
She danced around the room awhile and she did the hoochy cooch |
Blow up your TV, throw away your paper |
Go to the country, build you a home |
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches |
Try and find Jesus on your own |
But I was young and hungry and about to leave that place |
Just as I was going she looked me in the face |
I said «You must know the answer», she said «No, but I’ll give it a try» |
And to this day we’ve been livin' our way, here is the reason why |
We blew up the TV, threw away the paper |
Went to the country, built us a home |
Had a lotta children, fed 'em on peaches |
They all found Jesus on their own |
