89.Two Characters In Search Of A Country Song

Lyricist:Stephin Raymond Merritt

You were just like me, you were one big bruise
In the game of life with your playing too lose
You were Jessy James, I was William Tell
You were Daniel Webster, I was the devil himself

Two characters in search of a country song
Just make believe but so in love
Two characters been listin' all night long
For voices from Nashville above

Hell in eighteen wheels at a hundred per
We went crashing through the Jersey barrier
But the road went on over dale and hill
You were Calamity Jane and I was Wild Bill

Two characters in search of a country song
Just make believe but so in love
Two characters been listin' all night long
For voices from Nashville above

Two characters in search of a country song
Just make believe but so in love
Two characters been listin' all night long
For voices from Nashville above
