Don't Be Late
det är ingen som vill någon vart
Jag har åkt så många varv
men det är alltid lika svart
Anna är det tiden på året som skrämmer
är vi trygga bakom väggarna här
Nej jag vill inte få in den där världen
den är så tom och tyst och tvär
Och min tunna karaktär
bara vrider och vänder sig
och vill va bättre man för dig
Ett smartare drag en lösni
Athens, Ohio
And I listened to her
Without trying to come up with an excuse to leave
She used to laugh so hard at
Something she thought of on the toilet
That she just about fell off the toilet seat
Wasn't snowing out anymore
But every once in a while you could hear a car not
Being able to get started
All too easily, all too easily, all too easily
She might have been the
Usual sort of
Landlady smelling
Of washing-soda
And backing-powder
She was one of these very tall
Round-shouldered
Women, she was
About six-four with lousy teeth. She
Came over to me, and gave me
These two playful as hell slaps
On both my cheeks
I gave her the wrong idea perhaps
She shouldn't be allowed to watch
Any and every program
All too easily, all too easily, all too easily
She might have been the
Usual sort of
Fifty-three miles
Miles an hour
In a forty mile-zone and attempted bribery
Mary Springer married Jerry
And everything
Smelled as if she
Had loads and loads
Of Vicks nose-drops
