3
When I first met Doreen
4
She was barely seventeen.
5
She was drinking whiskey sours in the bar.
6
The way she tossed 'em back
7
I would've had a heart attack.
8
But as it is I let her drive my car.
9
We galloped through the boroughs
10
Like a pair of horny thoroughbreds,
11
Until I said, "Stop the car, Doreen."
12
Well you can roll your eyes and nod
13
But I swear that I saw God,
14
In the moonlight on a side street in the wreckage we call Queens.
15
Doreen, Doreen, Last night I had an awful dream.
16
You were laying in the arms of a man I'd never seen.
17
Come clean Doreen. Come clean Doreen.
18
Well I'm pulling into Cleveland
19
In a seven-seater tour van.
20
There's eight of us, so I'm sleeping on the floor.
21
The guy that plays the banjo
22
Keeps on handing me the Old Crow,
23
Which multiplies my sorrow, I can't take it anymore.
24
Doreen, Doreen, last night I had an awful dream.
25
You were laying in the arms of a man I'd never seen.
26
Come clean Doreen. Come clean Doreen.
27
Now I'm begging and I'm pleading,
28
"Well pull over guys, I'm bleeding.
29
There's a Fina off the highway with a phone."
30
I'm calling you Doreen,
31
But it rings and rings and rings.
32
Where is it that you are, if you aren't in our bed at home.
33
Doreen, Doreen, last night I had an awful dream.
34
You were laying in the arms of a man I'd never seen.
35
Come clean Doreen. Come clean Doreen.
