Patty Loveless Ships
==================================================================== ===== Eddie had a few days comin' So he took a Las Vegas jaunt Out to the land of supply and demand Where you can get anything you want He wasn't lookin' for true love No, he didn't believe in that stuff Eddie LeGrande was a hard workin' man Who just needed a little good luck His shoes were a little worn His hair was a little thin Just another old sailor Waitin' on his ship to come in Lily was a two time loser Who said that love was just a roll of the dice She acted real tough, said once ain't enough For me I learned my lesson twice But deep in her heart lived a young girl Dreamin' a young girl's dream And that young girl was who Eddie ran into Over by the slot machines Her face was a little pale Her dress was a little thin Oh but lookin' at her was like Watchin' his ship come in Well, he bought her a cup of coffee With the quarters he meant to play They went for a bite and they talked all night 'Til they said what they needed to say Then they found 'em an all night chapel With a heart shaped honeymoon suite And somewhere tonight in the neon light Two hearts can't be beat And he's singin' a little song She's grinnin' a little grin And they're holdin' each other Watchin' their ship to come in Her face was a little pale His hair was a little thin But they're two young lovers Watchin' their ship to come in Just holdin' each other Watchin' their ship to come in ==================================================================== =====
