oh Kari I'm coming home
oh Kari I'm coming home
Gatorade and lemonade
and lying naked in the shade
pretending that I got it made by than
sniff and stuff and dip and snuff
till I think I have enough
and then I gonna get up if I can
oh Kari I'm coming home
oh Kari I'm coming home
the sky is green and in between
somebody says the water's clean
but I bet's just a dream by
the President is popping pilles
and paying all the old folks' bills
and wearing a silver spoon around his neck
oh Kari I'm coming home
oh Kari I'm coming home
an evil eye from the FBI
came walking by and caught my eye
and I told him carefully buddy I am James Bond (don't show)
he caught my bluff and took my stuff
and hit me till he'd had enough
and took me to a place I'm not fond of
oh Kari I won't be home
oh Kari I won't be home
Female:
I've been where the eagle flies.
Rode his wings 'cross autumn skies.
Kissed the sun, touched the moon.
But he left me much too soon.
His lady bird...he left his lady bird.
Male:
Lady bird come on down.
I'm here waiting on the ground.
Lady bird I'll treat you good.
Ah, lady bird I wish you would.
You lady bird...pretty lady bird.
Female:
Lightning flashed across the sky.
The night he taught me how to fly.
The sun came up and then I found.
Too soon he let his lady down.
His lady bird...I'm his lady bird.
Male:
Lady bird come on down.
I'm here waiting on the ground.
Lady bird I'll treat you good.
Aw, lady bird I wish you would.
You lady bird...pretty lady bird.
Female:
Winter lives in my heart.
In the times that we're apart.
Summer sings a song or two.
When he says 'I love you true'.
My lady bird...yeah, I'm his lady bird.
Male:
Lady bird come on down.
I'm here waiting on the ground.
Lady bird I'll treat you good.
Aw, lady bird I wish you would.
You lady bird...pretty lady bird.
Female:
I'm your lady bird.
Male:
You're a lady bird.
Female:
Yes, I'm a lady bird.
Male:
You're too much you little bird.
Leather and lace hangin' in place and the fire was as warm as the wine
the leather was hot the lace it was not so she left my side for a time
ran into town leaving her gown in a place by the door
now the leather and lace still hangs in place but I never see her anymore
Leather and lace hangin' in place and desire was as warm as the wine
the leather was sure the lace couldn't 'dure and endure I did for a time
then I run to town leaving my gown with a face like the red lace I wore
now the leather and lace still hang in place but I never see him anymore
Leather and lace hangin' in place and desire was as warm as the wine

Last week you said we leave you
every word you say was true
but last night I saw you kissin'
a kissin' on somebody new
and since that happened
I don't believe in Chicago
or that old Eastern bunny like my four
I won't be good till Christmas
and the lone ranger ain't my friend anymore
Last week you introduced me
to a guy named Fred at your place
but last night when you came home
you had Fred all over you face
and since that happened
I don't believe in Chicago
or that old Eastern bunny like my four
I won't be good till Christmas
and the lone ranger ain't my friend anymore
You can never say what his name was
just left this silver bullit split
or was it the other way
and the lone ranger ain't my friend anymore
anymore anymore anymore
Back when I was ten Jim was my best friend
We'd go down to the station and watched the trains come in
The long black train the long black train
Some day I told my friend we'll ride that train and then
We'll make a fortune for ourselves and we'll ride it home again
The long black train the long black train
As we grew older Jim grew wilder than the wind
He robbed the bank in our hometown and they sent me after him
On the long black train the long black train
And so I cut my friend twelve men convicted him
Ninety nine years is what he got I'll bet it seems like a hundred to Jim
He'll miss the long black train the long black train
