Generate meaning
1
She was a level-headed dancer on the road to alcohol
2
And I was just a soldier on my way to Montreal
3
Well she pressed her chest against me
4
About the time the juke box broke
5
Yeah, she gave me a peck on the back of the neck
6
And these are the words she spoke
7
Chorus:
8
Blow up your T.V. throw away your paper
9
Go to the country, build you a home
10
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches
11
Try an find Jesus on your own
12
Well, I sat there at the table and I acted real naive
13
For I knew that topless lady had something up her sleeve
14
Well, she danced around the bar room and she did the hoochy-coo
15
Yeah she sang her song all night long, tellin' me what to do
16
Repeat chorus:
17
Well, I was young and hungry and about to leave that place
18
When just as I was leavin', well she looked me in the face
19
I said "You must know the answer."
20
"She said, "No but I'll give it a try."
21
And to this very day we've been livin' our way
22
And here is the reason why
23
We blew up our T.V. threw away our paper
24
Went to the country, built us a home
25
Had a lot of children, fed 'em on peaches
26
They all found Jesus on their own
