Jessie
from a phone booth in Vegas, Jessie calls at 5 a.m.
To tell me how she's tired of al of them
She says, "Baby I've been thinking about a trailer by the sea
We could go to Mexico, just you, the cat, and me
We'll drink tequila, and look for sea shells--now doesn't that sound sweet
Jessie why do you always do this every time I get back on my feet?

(
Chorus)
Jessie, paint your pictures about how it's gonna be
By now I whould know better--your dreams are never free
But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea
Jessis, you could 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 you pictures down off the wall
Jessie, how do you always seem to know just when to all?"
She says, "Get your things together.  Bring Mose, and drive real fast"
And I listen to her promise, "I swear to God this time it's gonna last!"

(
Chorus)

I'll love you in the sunshine
Lay you down in the warm white sand
And who knows?  Maybe sometimes
Things'll work out just the way you planned

(
Chorus)
