Testi musica canzoni

I was drivin home early Sunday morning
Through Bakersfield,
Listening to gospel music on the coloured radio station,
And the preacher said: You know you always have the lord by your side
And I was so pleased to be informed of this
That I ran twenty red lights in his honour,
Thank you Jesus, thank you lord

I had an arrangement to met a girl, and I was kind of late
And I thought by the time I got there shed be off,
Shed be off with the nearest truck driver she could find
Much to my surprise there she was sittin in a corner
Little bleary, worse for wear and tear
Was a girl with far away eyes
Well I tell you

So if youre down on youre luck, and you cant harmonize
Find a girl with far away eyes
And if youre downright disgusted
And life aint worth a dime
Get a girl with far away eyes
Well

Well the preacher kept right on saying
That all I had to do was send ten dollars
To the church of the sacred bleeding heart of Jesus,
Located somewhere in Los Angeles, California
And next week theyd say my prayer on the radio
And all my dreams would come true
So I did, and next week I got a prayer for the girl
Well you know what kind of eyes she got,
Well I tell you

So if youre down on youre luck, I know you all sympathize
Find a girl with far away eyes
And if youre downright disgusted
And life aint worth a dime
Get a girl with far away eyes
So if youre down on youre luck, I know you all sympathize
Get a girl with far away eyes
