The Ballad of Lucy Jordan - Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show[00:00:00]
Written by:Sheldon Silverstein[00:00:00]
The mornin' sun touched lightly[00:00:00]
On the eyes of Lucy Jordan[00:00:03]
In her white suburban bedroom[00:00:09]
In a white suburban town[00:00:14]
As she lay there 'neath the covers[00:00:18]
Dreaming of a thousand lovers[00:00:23]
'Til the world turned to orange[00:00:27]
And the room went spinnin' round[00:00:32]
At the age of 37 she realised[00:00:37]
She'd never ride through Paris[00:00:44]
In a sports car with the warm wind in her hair[00:00:48]
And she let the phone keep ringin'[00:00:57]
As she sat there softly singin'[00:01:02]
Pretty nursery rhymes[00:01:06]
She'd memorised in her daddy's easy chair[00:01:09]
Her husband he was off to work[00:01:18]
And the kids were off to school[00:01:22]
And there were oh so many ways for her to spend her day[00:01:27]
She could clean the house for hours[00:01:36]
Or rearrange the flowers[00:01:41]
Or run naked down the shady street screaming all the way[00:01:46]
At the age of 37[00:01:55]
She realised she'd never ride through Paris[00:02:00]
In a sports car with the warm wind in her hair[00:02:06]
And she let that phone keep ringin'[00:02:16]
As she sat there softly singin'[00:02:20]
Pretty nursery rhymes[00:02:25]
She'd memorised in her daddy's easy chair[00:02:27]
The evening sun touched gently on the eyes of Lucy Jordan[00:02:37]
On the rooftop where she'd climbed[00:02:46]
When all the laughter grew too loud[00:02:50]
And she bowed and curtseyed to the man[00:02:58]
Who reached and offered her his hand[00:03:02]
And led her down to the long white car[00:03:07]
That waited past the crowd[00:03:12]
At the age of 37 she knew she'd found forever[00:03:16]
As they rode along through Paris[00:03:25]
With the warm wind in her hair[00:03:30]
Ooooohhh yes with the wind in her hair oooohhhh[00:03:35]
