	Well, I used to drive a cab, you know
	I heard a siren scream
	Pulled over to the corner
	And I fell into a dream
	There were two men eating pennies
	And three young girls who cried
	The West coast is falling,
	I see rocks in the sky.
	The preacher took his bible
	And laid it on the stool.
	He said: with the congregation running,
	Why should I play the fool?
	Well, I used to be a woman, you know
	I took you for a ride,
	I let you fly my airplane
	It looked good for your pride.
	'Cause you're the kind of man you know
	Who likes what he says.
	I wonder what's it's like
	To be so far over my head.
	Well, the lady made the wedding
	And she brought along the ring.
	She got down on her knees
	And said: Let's get on with this thing.
	Well, I used to be a folk singer
	Keeping managers alive,
	When you saw me on a corner
	And told me I was jive.
	So I unlocked your mind, you know
	To see what I could see.
	If you guarantee the postage,
	I'll mail you back the key.
	Well I woke up in the morning
	With an arrow through my nose
	There was an Indian in the corner
	Tryin' on my clothes.
	Well, I used to be asleep you know
	With blankets on my bed.
	I stayed there for a while
	'Til they discovered I was dead.
	The coroner was friendly
	And I liked him quite a lot.
	If I hadn't 've been a woman
	I guess I'd never have been caught.
	They gave me back my house and car
	And nothing more was said.
	Well, I was driving down the freeway
	When my car ran out of gas.
	Pulled over to the station
	But I was afraid to ask.
	The servicemen were yellow
	And the gasoline was green.
	Although I knew I couldn't
	I thought that I was gonna scream.
	That was on my last trip to Tulsa
	Just before the snow.
	If you ever need a ride there,
	Be sure to let me know.
	I was chopping down a palm tree
	When a friend dropped by to ask
	If I would feel less lonely
	If he helped me swing the axe.
	I said: No, it's not a case of being lonely
	We have here,
	I've been working on this palm tree
	For eighty seven years
	I said: No, it's not a case of being lonely
	We have here,
	I've been working on this palm tree
	For eighty seven years
	He said: Go get lost!
	And walked towards his Cadillac.
	I chopped down the palm tree
	And it landed on his back.
