Flannel Graph Apple Pie Lyrics

I told my dad I didn't love him anymore
And I grabbed all the cash
And I went and slammed the door
And I spent it like
Yea, I spent it like a movie star
Yea, I spent it right
I spent it right in all bars
And I was so hungry
So thirsty
The ladies, they adored me
And the men all wished to be me
They burned with all their jealousy

I had everything that a man like me should buy
And I lived like a King in America with Apple Pie
But my heart was small
And my world was smaller than before
And my fence was tall
To keep out the people who were wanting more

I knew a girl
Oh, Katie was her name
She was quite the whirlwind
And she wanted to state my claim
And she said
Oh baby
Oh maybe
You and me could get married
And we'll settle down and bury all the warrants in our history

But all the party lights went out
And I was left alone
And the amount of money that I had
Was the amount of love I was shown
And I had nothing
Oh nothing
Yea, I had nothing
Yea, I had nothing
No
But I had something
Oh, I had something
Oh something
Oh, I had something
Oh, I had something
Oh, I had something
Oh, I had something
Somebody

So I gathered up all of my pride
And I hitchhiked to a town where my dignity had died
And he was waiting
Yea, he was waiting
And he ran and kissed me
