From a phone booth in Vegas, Jessie calls at 5 A.M.

to tell me how she's tired of all of them.

She says, "Baby, I been thinking 'bout a trailer by the sea.

We could go to Mexico... you, the cat and me.

We'll drink tequila and look for sea shells.

Now, doesn't that sound sweet?"

Oh, Jessie, you always do this every time I get back on my feet.

Jessie paint your pictures 'bout how it's gonna be.

By now I should know better, your dreams are never free.

But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea;

Jessie you can always sell any dream to me.

Oh, Jessie, you can always sell any dream to me.

She asks me how the cat's been. I say, "Moses he's just fine

but he used to think about you all the time.

We finally took your pictures down off the wall.

Oh, Jessie, how do you always seem to know just when to call?"

She says, "Get your stuff together. Bring Moses and drive real fast."

And I listen to her promise, "I swear to God this time it's gonna last."

Jessie paint your pictures 'bout how it's gonna be.

By now I should know better, your dreams are never free.

But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea;

Jessie you can always sell any dream to me.

Oh, Jessie, you can always sell any dream to me.

I'll love you in the sunshine, lay you down in the warm white sand.

And who knows, maybe this time things'll turn out just the way you planned.

Jessie paint your pictures 'bout how it's gonna be.

By now I should know better, your dreams are never free.

But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea;

Jessie you can always sell any dream to me.

Oh, Jessie, you can always sell any dream to me.

Jesse - Joshua Kadison (1994)

(from the album - Painted Desert Serenade).

It is a great song! Goes something like this...

From a phone booth in Vegas

Jesse calls at 5am

To tell me how she's tired of all of this

She says baby I've been thinking

About a trailer by the sea

We could go to Mexico

You, the cat and me

We'll drink tequila and look for seashells

Now doesn't that sound sweet

Jesse you always do this

Everytime I get back on my feet

Jesse paint your pictures

About how it's gonna be

By now I should know better

Your dreams are never free

But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea

Jesse you can always sell any dream to me

Jesse you can always sell any dream to me

She asked me how the cat's been

I say Moses he's just fine

But he used to think about you all the time

We finally took your pictures down off the wall

Jesse how do you seem to always know just when to call

She says get yourself together

Bring Moses down real fast

And I listened to her promise

I swear to God this time it's gonna last

I love you in the sunshine

Lay you down in the warm white sand

And who knows maybe this time

Things will turn out just the way you planned

actually it's from the early 90's
