In the time between the glory days and the golden years

She did the work of twenty able men

Sent Tommy off to school to be an engineer

And Sarah went to try out all her sins

She took to taking tea out in the Belvedere

Bourbon in the evenings by the fire

As if The Great Depression never made it here

As if she had defeated her desire

She just wanted to ride in a Delahaye 135

She just wanted to ride in a Hudson Commodore

No need to worry anymore

A doctor then a lawyer then a Roosevelt

Tried to take her underneath the wing

When she was in her twenties in the Bible Belt

Before she knew she didn't need a thing

She didn't need there pity on a single girl

She didn't need there help to raise the brood

She wouldn't be returning to her daddies world

She didn't want a better attitude

She just wanted to ride in a Delahaye 135

She just wanted to ride in a Hudson Commodore

No need to worry anymore

She just wanted to ride in a Delahaye 135

She just wanted to ride in a Hudson Commodore

No need to worry anymore
