about

Great groovin' & drivin' track about star-crossed love

lyrics

She had Neil Young on the hi-fi
Last Trip to Tulsa
She put on Blood on the Tracks, I wanted to cry
Lord, she made my pulse run

We left her place, went for a ride
Downtown for a couple of beers
The way she smiled, that look in her eye
I had to focus in order to steer

T-Shirt, blue jeans
T-Shirt, blue jeans
T-Shirt, blue jeans
Something special was happening
Something special was happening

We parked the car, walked side by side
“Let’s go some place where we won’t be seen
That joint with tikis, black velvet paintings
Of naked ladies. They got pinball machines.”

She held her beer in long, slender fingers
She held my mind and demolished time
In that moment was the only moment
She told her story and I told her mine

T-Shirt, blue jeans…

Like West Side Story or High Noon
Only courage will tell the tale
I’d blow the ending if I said now I’m sorry
Bumming tobacco in this Tacoma jail

I still remember how she was then
I know she’s fine and still having fun
Her smile was like a bucket of diamonds
I still remember when she gave me one

T-Shirt, blue jeans…
