lyrics
Down on my luck driving 'round the old hospital lot.
She said, "You're going my way, you gonna give me a life there or what?"
And I said, "Oh no, you got me in your trap, if that's not enough you'll be taking the easy way back!"
Oh she's so sweet and I'm thinking that I like her a lot.
She said, "We can go out, you can pick me up around six o' clock."
And I said, "Oh no, well this is where it's at, if that's not enough you'll be taking the easy way back!"
Patrick walks up he says he thinks I ought to give it some thought.
He says "Man don't you know, you're gonna get yourself a mighty shock."
And I said, "Oh no, well I'm alright for that, 'cause lord only knows I'll be taking the easy way back!"
She said, "You're going my way, you gonna give me a life there or what?"
And I said, "Oh no, you got me in your trap, if that's not enough you'll be taking the easy way back!"
Oh she's so sweet and I'm thinking that I like her a lot.
She said, "We can go out, you can pick me up around six o' clock."
And I said, "Oh no, well this is where it's at, if that's not enough you'll be taking the easy way back!"
Patrick walks up he says he thinks I ought to give it some thought.
He says "Man don't you know, you're gonna get yourself a mighty shock."
And I said, "Oh no, well I'm alright for that, 'cause lord only knows I'll be taking the easy way back!"
