Lizzy - Ben Kweller

sign me up, i volunteer

votes are in for lifeguard of the year

her feline past lives are plain to see

their similarities are shown in this life again

like mama said, dontcha let it go to your head

when ya know you’re being fed

i’m so proud to know you

lizzy, i’ll write, i’ll sing

telegraph, telegram

telephone, tellin' you

i’ll be home soon

we will wake when kitty licks

and in the morn, work takes her to maine

dressed and out the door by six

tomorrow is the first time liz can’t board my plane

like mama said, dontcha let it go to your head

when ya know your book is read

i’m so proud to know you

anna will take me to the port

as liz drives up i-95

me and my darlin' keep love alive

even on texas time

like mama said, dontcha let it go to your head

when your town is painted red

i’m so proud to know you

lizzy, i’ll write, i’ll sing

telegraph, telegram

telephone, tellin' you

i’ll be home soon
