Jessie

From a phone booth in Vegas Jessie calls at 5 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?" But Jessie, you always do this every time I get back on my feet And Jessie, paint your pictures about how it's gonna be But now I should know better your dreams are never free But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea And Jessie, you can always sell any dream to me And 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 off the wall" "And 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 listen to her promise I'd swear to God this time it's gonna last Oh, Jessie, paint your pictures about how it's gonna be By now I should know better your dreams are never free And tell me all about our little trailer by the sea And Jessie, you can always sell any dream to me And Jessie, you can always sell any dream to me And Jessie, you can always sell any dream to me Oh, I love you in the sunshine I lay you down in the warm white sand And who knows, maybe this time Things will turn out just the way you planned Oh, Jessie, paint your pictures about how it's gonna be By now I should know better your dreams are never free And tell me all about our little trailer by the sea And Jessie, you can always sell any dream to me And Jessie, you can always sell any dream to me
