Union Suit


when your momma smiles I see she got real big ears
talk from a mile away and she is sure to hear
go and see the family maybe stay a while
your mom's got real big ears she got a great big smile

maybe we can play in your big back yard
we can play go fish we can do tricks with cards
take off your union suit put on your birthday suit
you got love for me I got love for you

Friday evening and they played our song
imagine my surprise when they told me you were gone
someday I'll run away and they will come undone
give my regards regards to each and every one

she is weeping through her falling hair
please forgive me but I cannot be there
once we were cherished and our hearts unfettered
now we live for postcards and old love letters

Friday evening and they played our song
imagine my surprise when they told me you were gone
someday I'll run away and they will come undone
give my regards regards to each and every one

I was walking and it was something
I heard singing like Gabriel's trumpet
voice like a loon voice like a cannon ball
please pay them my respects say that I miss them all

Friday evening and they played our song
imagine my surprise when they told me you were gone
someday I'll run away and they will come undone
give my regards regards to each and every one
