My Alice
Early in the fall, back deep in the woods The first hint of frost is upon you 'Bout a mile beyond the field stone wall It's not hard to get lost if you want to Too far from the city to see the white lights I move in the shadows under cover of the night Too far from the highway to blow a flat tire I stare in the ashes and fire Now John Saint Paul is a well-known man Of wealth in his skyscraper palace He likes his old Cadillac prepped for long drives I don't like how he looks at my Alice I work his garage with a wrench in my glove Bring the stench of his gasoline home to my love She swears once again she has all she desires As I stare in the ashes and fire One day late last week when I got the word The boss needs his Caddie all steady I remembered his eyes all over my wife As I carefully got my tools ready What a terrible shame should he ever break down Letras de cancionesWith me on his trail and so far from town If his brakes were to fail, if he blew out a tire And I stared in the ashes and fire Now John Saint Paul is a well-known man Of wealth in his skyscraper palace He likes his old Cadillac prepped for long drives I don't like how he looks at my Alice I don't like how he looks at my Alice From Letras Mania
