Gasoline Alley Bred

Oh, woman get your head out of curlers Time to get your butt outta bed Get down your hats and your baggage my child Goin' back home gettin' back to the homestead I'm gonna heat me some water Put a shine upon my shoes Telephone my ma, keep the room above Joe's 'Cause we're comin' back, comin' back to the homestead Everythin' is packed, gettin' back to the homestead This time, this time we'll stay, baby I know that we could have made it We had ideas in our heads And I wish somehow we could have saved it But we're gasoline Alley Bred Yet the years haven't really been wasted And I know it in my head We did good for the life that we tasted 'Cause we're gasoline Alley Gasoline Alley Bred Woman you can really believe it I did everythin' a man could do Breakin' my back just to make us a dime That won't mean a damn when no one wants to know you Woman I know how your feelin' I've seen the hurt upon your face How many times do you think that I've cried Knowin' every day that your heart was gettin' broken Holdin' back your pride till you were nearly chokin' Let's get away, baby I know that we could have made it We had ideas in our heads And I wish somehow we could have saved it But we're gasoline Alley Bred Yet the years haven't really been wasted And I know it in my head We did good for the life that we tasted 'Cause we're gasoline Alley Gasoline Alley Bred (Gasoline Alley) Gasoline Alley Bred (Gasoline Alley) Gasoline Alley Bred (Gasoline Alley) Gasoline Alley Bred
