My baby left this morning with everything I had She didn't give me no warning and that's why I feel so bad Oh, Anita, Anita, I need some sympathy Anita, I love ya, come and sit by me. That's a tape that we made but I'm sad to say it never made the grade That was me, third guitar, I wonder where the others are. Vine Street, we used to live there on Vine Street She made perfume in the back of the room While me and my group we'd sit out on the stoop And we'd play for her the songs she liked best To have us play on Vine Street. Vine Street, the crack of the back beat on Vine Street Swingin' along on the wings of a song Lyin' secure, self-righteous and sure Why we'd things to say if the people would pay To have us play on Vine Street |

I like your brother and I like your mother I like you and you like me too We'll get a preacher, I'll buy a ring We'll hire a band with an accordion And a violin and a tenor who can sing. You and me, you and me, baby You and me, you and me, you and me, baby You and me, you and me, you and me, baby You and me, you and me, you and me. We'll have a kid or maybe we'll rent one He's got to be straight 'cause we don't want no bent one He'll drink his baby brew from a big brass cup Some day he may be president if things loosen up. You and me, you and me, baby You and me, you and me, you and me, baby You and me, you and me, you and me, baby You and me, you and me, you and me. I'll take the train into the city every morning You may be plain but I think you're pretty in the morning Some nights we'll go out dancin' if I am not too tired And some nights we'll sit romancin', watchin' the late show by the fire. When our kids are grown, with kids of their own They'll send us away to a little home in Florida We'll play checkers all day 'till we pass away. |

Very far away in a foreign land Lives a young woman and a yellow man He's been around for many a year They say they were there before we were here. Eatin' rice all day while the children play You see he believes in the family Just like you and me. Oh, yellow man, yellow man We understand, you know we understand. Dat dat dat dat dat dat … Keeps his money tight in his hand With his yellow woman, he's a yellow man Got to have a yellow woman when you're a yellow man. |

Cold gray buildings where a hill should be Steel and concrete, closin' in on me City faces haunt the places, I rode alone Cowboy, cowboy Can't run, can't hide It's too late to fight now, too tired to try. Wind that once blew free now scatters dust to the sky Cowboy, cowboy Can't run, can't hide It's too late to fight now, too tired to try. |

How can we make you great ? Well we gotta irrigate our desert And we gotta get some things to grow And we gotta tell this country about Utah 'Cause nobody seems to know. |

The milk truck hauls the sun up, the paper hits the door The subway shakes my floor and I think about you Time to face the dawning gray of another lonely day It's so hard living without you. It's so hard, it's so hard It's so hard living without you. Everyone's got something, they're trying to get some more They got something to get up for but I ain't about to Nothin's gonna happen, nothin's gonna change It's so hard living without you. It's so hard, it's so hard It's so hard living without you. It's so hard, it's so hard So hard. |

Sing a song of long ago when thing were green and movin' slow And people stopped to say hello and they'd say hi to you Would you like to come over for tea with the misses and me ? It's a real nice way to spend a day in Dayton, Ohio on a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1903. Sing a song of long ago when things could grow and days flowed quietly The air was clean and you could see and folks were nice to you Would you like to come over for tea with the misses and me ? It's a real nice way to spend a day in Dayton, Ohio on a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1903. |
