Jessie

From a phonebox in Vegas

Jessie calls at 5am

To tell me how she’s tired

Of all of this

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 sea shells

Now doesn’t that sounds sweet?

Oh, Jessie you always do this

Everytime I get back on my feet

Chorus:

Jessie, paint your pictures

about how its gonna be

but now I should know better

Your dreams are never free

But tell me all about your little

trailer by the sea

Jessie you can always

sell any dream to me

Oh, Jessie you can always

sell any dream to me

She ask me how the cat’s been

I said: Moses...he’s just fine!

But he use 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 said:Get your stuff together

bring Moses and drive real fast

and I listened to her promise:

I swear to God this time is gonna last

Chorus:

Jessie, paint your pictures

about how its gonna be

but now I should know better

Your dreams are never free

But tell me all about your little

trailer by the sea

Jessie you can always

sell any dream to me

I 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

Chorus:

Jessie, paint your pictures

about how its gonna be

but now I should know better

Your dreams are never free

But tell me all about your little

trailer by the sea

Jessie you can always

sell any dream to me

Oh, Jessie you can always

sell any dream to me
