She'll Drive the Big Car

[Verse 1]

She waited by the moon

She was sick with fear and cold

She felt too old for all of this

Of course he never showed

She lugged her suitcase to the bus

Melted home through the snow

North along Riverside

[Verse 2]

She slips beneath the sheets

A husband's quiet devoted wife

But strangers, sad and nervous

By the dawn's early light

Love lies like a dead cloud

On a shabby, yellow lawn

Up on Riverside

[Chorus]

She'll drive the big car

He'll sit behind

She'll keep an eye on Jessica

South along the Hudson

She'll turn the radio high

Find a station playing sad, sad soul

Just a little bit louder now (Just a little bit louder now)

South along the Hudson, yeah (I'll bring you there)

Just a little bit faster now (Just a little bit faster now)

Just a little bit louder now (Just a little bit louder now, I'll bring you there)

Just a little bit angry now (Just a little bit angry now)

South along the Hudson, yeah (I'll bring you there)

And she'll drive the big car

And talk herself insane (I'll bring you there)

Just a little bit louder now (Just a little bit louder now)

Just a little bit angry now (I'll bring you there)

[Verse 3]

Way back when millennium

Meant racing to the light

He promised her a dream life

He'd take her back to street life

Away from violent water

With its cormorants and leaves

Up on Riverside

[Chorus]

She'll drive the big car

But he'll sit behind

Bursting her bubbles of Ludlow and Grand

South along the Hudson

She'll turn the radio way up high

Find a station playing sad, sad soul

Just a little bit louder now (Just a little bit louder now)

South along the Hudson (I'll bring you there)

Just a little bit faster now (Just a little bit faster now)

Just a little bit louder now (Just a little bit louder now, I'll bring you there)

Just a little bit angry now (Just a little bit angry now)

South along the Hudson, yeah (I'll bring you there)

Just a little bit faster now (Just a little bit faster now)

Just a little bit louder now (Just a little bit louder now, I'll bring you there)

Just a little bit angry now (Just a little bit angry now)

South along the Hudson, yeah (I'll bring you there)

She'll drive the big car

He'll sit behind (I'll bring you there)

She'll keep an eye on Jessica

Just a little bit faster now (I'll bring you there)

Just a little bit faster now (Just a little bit faster now)

Just a little bit
