Jim Bakkum - Jessie

From a phone booth in vegas
jessie calls at 5 A.M
to tell me how she's tired, of all of them
she says: baby i've been thinking
about a trailer by the sea
we could go to mexico you the cat and me.

we'll drink teguila and look for sea shells
now doesn't that sound sweet?
oh jessie you always do this
every time i get back on my feet.

oh Jessie paint your pictures
'bout how it's gonna be
by now i should know better
your dreams are never free
so tell me all about our little trailer by the sea
jessie you can always sell any dream to me
oh Jessie you can always sell any dream to me



She ask's me how the cat's been
I say,"Moses he's just fine
But he used to think about you all the time
We finally
Took your pictures down off the wall
Oh,Jessie,how do you always
Seem to know
Just when to call?"
She says,"Get your stuff together
Bring Mose and drive real fast"
And I listen to her promise
"I swear to God
This time it's gonna last."

Jessie paint you pictures
'Bout how it's gonna be
By now I should know better
Your dreams are never free
But tell me all
About our little trailer by the sea
Jessie you can always sell
And dream to me
Oh,jessie,you can always
Sell any dream to me

I'll love you in the sunshine
Lay you down in the warm white sand
And who knows,maybe this time
Things'll turn out
Just the way you planned

Jessie paint you pictures
'Bout how it's gonna be
By now I should know better
Your dreams are never free
But tell me all
About our little trailer by the sea
Jessie you can always sell
And dream to me
Oh,jessie,you can always
Sell any dream to me
