Cumberland Farms

Take me down to Cumberland Farms
wrap me in your big black arms
tell me I'm the only one
that can make you feel alive

Tito's down at the brushless wash
reading racing week and jerking off
he'll never sell that Malibu
and he'll always live at home

Cuz this town's like a fire babe
with no back door and no brigade
and the only way to get first aid
is a Greyhound down the shore

And I don't care just what they say
I'll stick by you anyway
and I'll take you out of here some day
to a duplex in Bayonne

Take me down to Cumberland Farms
where the hole in one never did no harm
and Alobar did the chocolate swirl
better than Dairy Queen

Gino's got it out for me
I kissed his sister New Year's Eve
and missed the forest for the trees
then passed out on the lawn

cuz you and me we ain't movie stars
but at least we know who we are
and I think you're better than by far
the flavor of the week

And I don't care just what they say
I'll stick by you anyway
and I'll take you out of here some day
to a duplex in Bayonne

Aww shucks

Take me down to Cumberland Farms
where the neighbors fight from dust to dawn
casinos on the coast are gone
and crumbling in the sea

I got the cross-eyed daughter of a beauty queen
the relay towers in the trees
chasing signals from the sea
when the radio is on

The waves are breaking on the beach
but you've been smoking in your sleep
so grab the things you're gonna keep
and let the rest burn down

And I don't care just what they say
I'll stick by you anyway
and I'll take you out of here some day
to a duplex in Bayonne
