She knew it was a little too early for a brand new game.
But Patty didn't like it when things stayed the same.
She jumped off a moving train.
It wasn't her ankle but her heart she sprained
And there's no stopping Patty when she's jumping from a
Moving train.
She was a quarter mile out of town when I got her
Call.
Through the phone I could hear her chest quickly rise
And fall.
She told me to take a hike when I asked her to come
Back and set things right.
A half an hour later she was knocking on my bedroom
Wall.
Well, Well. The truth is, you can never let me down.
Oh, oh, you're my best friend in town.
Ain't it funny how people you know change to people
You don't,
When they end up doing lots of things that they said
They won't?
Patty, she's got her stuff, but when it comes to being
Patty she does not bluff.
She's fine and free and tough and that's good enough.
Well, well. The truth is, you could never let me down.
Oh, oh you're my best friend in town.
Softly, slow. Softly, soft and slow
Moonbeams, far below.
Softly, soft and slow.
Well, well. The truth is youcould never let me down.
Oh, oh, you're my best friend in town.
People tell me I shouldn't hang around with you.
Oh, oh, it's my favorite thing to do.
