I met a girl in Kalamazoo
She was doin' what you know she was doin'
She's got hair on her toes, hair in her nose
She's the one for me
Can't you see?
But when she walks away
She's got more games to play

Left my broken heart in Carolina
Forgot my broken toe in Alamo
Put the turkey in the oven, please dear
Now I won't be long, I'm comin' home

Oh my God, I've got my britches on backwards (She's got more toes than a cow)
I don't know what to do with the rod on the reel (She’s got hair on her toes, hair in the nose.)
How does it feel with the cockroach on your back, son? (Eggs in a basket, 20 cents a dozen)
But when we get home, all my little brothers they moan and moan

Left my broken heart in Carolina
Forgot my broken toe in Alamo
Put the turkey in the oven, please dear
Now I won't be long, I'm comin' home

Now it won't be long, I'm comin' home

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
