Jessie Lyrics - Singles - Joshua Kadison

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 

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 

And Jessie, you can always sell any dream to me
