cartridge

That you've ever seen
         D#          D
She's a phonographic dream

I didn't waste no time about it
I put on my coat and shoes
I packed up my old rocking chair
And I left them hell on Church 
Street blues
And I went down to the record shop
What else could I do
She was five foot one and three 
quarters
Lord she claimed she was five foot 
two

And she looked at me with her big 
green eyes
And she said can I help you find 
something
I said what you got on special

Record Lady
She's got the cutest little 
cartridge
That you've ever seen
She's a phonographic dream

Acting very safisticated
I began to browse around
I walked up to the Record Lady
And I said I sure do like what I 
have found
It would be so beautiful
Please come away with me
We could run down to Istanbul
Or maybe even Gay Paris

And she looked at me with her big 
green eyes
She said can I help you find 
something
I said what you got on special

Record Lady
She's got the cutest little 
cartridge
That you've ever seen
She's a phonographic dream
A phonographic dream

One day you know I will see
My phonographic fantasy
In sweet fulfillment to the last 
detail
Down in Acapulco
Or even somewhere else
Just her and me together
The whole day long
Her and me together
Playing them records all night long

She's the Record Lady

Set it spinning mama
Don't never stop my
