 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Stopped off on a long drive.
Down from the high country.
Spent a long time sitting here,
Long time counting hot miles.
Oh, oh I'd like a cup of black coffee and a piece of sweet cake.
But the girl in the print dress doesn't want my money
She won't take it: she says

Oh she says.
Oh she says I just know you're a Leo,
I can tell you've got a lion's heart.
She went on in this way for a while,
Like some 60's sister playing a part.
Oh this cup of black coffee gonna do me just fine.
Through the dust in the mirror tiles I can see that door,
Keep it close behind.

Oh she says.
She says, come on over to my house,
Make a journey here sometime.
You know there's a party going on,
A ladder in my stocking you can climb,
There's a ladder you can climb.

Oh she looked so liberated.
She was looking fit to start.
She got this back to front and sideways,
Wore her sleeve upon her heart.
Oh, oh, just one more coffee's 'bout all I can take.
Have to do a truck stop runner now.
I'm not man enough to make it,
She says.
She says.

Oh she says.
She says, come on over to my house,
Make a journey here sometime.
You know there's a party going on,
A ladder in my stocking you can climb,
There's a ladder you can climb.

Stopped off on a long drive.
Down from the high country.
Spent a long time sitting here,
Long time counting hot miles.
Oh, oh I'd like a cup of black coffee and a piece of sweet cake.
But the girl in the print dress doesn't want my money
She won't take it: she says

Oh she says.
She says, come on over to my house,
Make a journey here sometime.
Kick off those tired sports shoes
Got a ladder in my stocking you can climb,
There's a ladder you can climb.

Truck stop runner.
I'll be a truck stop runner.
