Will you still be sending me a Valentine? Birthday wishes? The occasional bottle of wine, perhaps?

Well, once I stayed out 'til quarter-past-three, and she locked the door. She said she didn’t need me, and refused to feed me.

Now I’m so lonely! Wanna die!

Someone found the letter you wrote me on the radio. They told the world just how you felt. It must have fallen out of a hole in your big brown overcoat. But they said it really loud, they said it on the air, on the radio!

On a Mexican (whoa-oh) radio? I turn the switch and check the number. I leave it on when in bed I slumber. I hear the rhythms of the music. I buy the product and never use it. I hear the talking of the DJ. Can’t understand – just what does he say?

I’d rather have red, red wine. It goes to my head and makes me forget that I still need him so.

A bottle of red, a bottle of white - whatever kind of mood you’re in tonight. I’ll meet you anytime you want at our Italian restaurant.

I took a ride once on The City of New Orleans, changing cars in Memphis, Tennessee.  
Half way home, we’ll be there by morning, through the Mississippi darkness, rolling down to the sea.

Money, its a gas. But share it fairly: just don’t take a slice of my stash.
