I was drivin' home early Sunday morning
Through Bakersfield,
Listening to gospel music on the coloured radio station,
And the preacher said: "You know you always have the lord by your side"
And I was so pleased to be informed of this
That I ran twenty red lights in his honour,
Thank you Jesus, thank you lord

I had an arrangement to met a girl, and I was kind of late
And I thought by the time I got there she'd be off,
She'd be off with the nearest truck driver she could find
Much to my surprise there she was sittin' in a corner
Little bleary, worse for wear and tear
Was a girl with far away eyes
Well I tell you

So if you're down on you're luck, and you can't harmonize
Find a girl with far away eyes
And if you're downright disgusted
And life ain't worth a dime
Get a girl with far away eyes
Well
