Far Away Eyes |
| I was drivin' home early Sunday morning |
| Through Bakersfield, |
| Listening to gospel music on the coloured radio station, |
| And the preacher said: «You know you always have the lord by your side» |
| And I was so pleased to be informed of this |
| That I ran twenty red lights in his honour, |
| Thank you Jesus, thank you lord |
| I had an arrangement to met a girl, and I was kind of late |
| And I thought by the time I got there she’d be off, |
| She’d be off with the nearest truck driver she could find |
| Much to my surprise there she was sittin' in a corner |
| Little bleary, worse for wear and tear |
| Was a girl with far away eyes |
| Well I tell you |
| So if you’re down on you’re luck, and you can’t harmonize |
| Find a girl with far away eyes |
| And if you’re downright disgusted |
| And life ain’t worth a dime |
| Get a girl with far away eyes |
| Well |
| Well the preacher kept right on saying |
| That all I had to do was send ten dollars |
| To the church of the sacred bleeding heart of Jesus, |
| Located somewhere in Los Angeles, California |
| And next week they’d say my prayer on the radio |
| And all my dreams would come true |
| So I did, and next week I got a prayer for the girl |
| Well you know what kind of eyes she got, |
| Well I tell you |
| So if you’re down on you’re luck, I know you all sympathize |
| Find a girl with far away eyes |
| And if you’re downright disgusted |
| And life ain’t worth a dime |
| Get a girl with far away eyes |
| So if you’re down on you’re luck, I know you all sympathize |
| Get a girl with far away eyes |
