jessie paints a picture
from a phone booth in Vegas,
Jessie calls at 5am,
to tell me how she's tired of all of this,
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 tequila and look for sea shells,
now doesn't that sound sweet?
ah Jessie you always do this every time i get back up on my feet.

Jessie paints a picture about how it's going to 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 any dream to me,
oh Jessie you can always sell any dream to me.

she asked me how the cat's been
i said "Moses he's just fine,
we used to think about you all the time,
we finally took your pictures down off the wall,
Jessie how do you always seem to just when to call?"
she said get "yourself together bring Moses drive real fast" and i listened to her promise,
i swear to god this time it's gonna last.

Jessie paints a picture about how it's going to 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 any dream to me,
oh Jessie you can always sell any dream to me.

Jessie you can always sell any dream to me,
i love you in the sunshine,
lay you down in the warm white sand,
and who knows maybe this time things will turn out just the way you planned.

Jessie paints a picture about 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 any dream to me,
oh Jessie you can always sell any dream to me.
