letra de just couldn't say - tim staffell

Loading...

it was rainin’ all over the city
caught  her comin’ out the beauty shop
she  took off in a ‘65 mustang
even though i yelled out: “stop, please, stop!”

she was wearin’ a white tuxedo
she  musta thought she looked real cool
she  drove on out to the east side
and i followed on like a fool

i  ran a red light to get closer
i kept smellin’ gasoline
and two blocks down from city hall
i nearly lost her, you know what i mean

i  swung round on a quarter
i musta clipped a yellow cab
i could hear someone shoutin’ behind me
they sure thought i was mad

i’m not given to dreamin’
but this was like a special day
the city slipped behind us
what i was doin’ i just couldn’t say

well, i knew i was losing pressure
when i got on the interstate
i couldn’t afford to get too far behind
so i floored the gas, ‘cause i could not wait

she was headin’ for amarillo
the mustang was throwin’ up spray
out of the night came an eighteen wheeler
and she didn’t get out of the way

well, the car went over the oakie bridge
i could hear the motor whine
lit up the sky like the 4th of july
and the big mac followed, a wheel at a time

i was still staring into the distance
long after the fire trucks had gone
she never knew i was watchin’
and i never knew what was wrong

i can’t understand what’d made her
take off in the night that way
maybe a secret rendezvous
or somethin’ else, i just couldn’t say

the buick was dead by the roadside
musta driven it into the ground
i walked back, took an hour or so
couldn’t figure what was goin’ down

the sun was above the horizon
when i let myself in through the door
she was standing with her back to me
and the white tuxedo was on the floor

seems she was thrown in the river
looks like she got away
i never asked where she was headed
and you know she just didn’t say
