BEFORE THEY TOW MY CAR AWAY
by John Hartford

Today I felt the cruel world
Through the skin of your rose colored touch
And an hour was better than nothing at all
In the knowing that that wasn't much
I'd like to eat your pretzels my love
I'd like to stay all day
But I must kiss you quick and run my love
Before they tow my car away
You haven't got change for a dollar
Besides it won't work after four
Just as soon as I lace up my work shoes
I think I should head to the door
I'd like to drink your coffee my love
I'd like to stay all day
But I must kiss you quick and run my love
Before they tow my car away




But my album even has liner notes and the person who owned it before me was Michael B. Bleecker
recorded on Iron Mountain Depot, RCA, 1970 hmmmm...not particuarly melodic is it?
