a jaunty little jalopy plea to get away from it all... employing the mandolin, the grabber bass, drums, and some especially shaky vocals. done on the porta-1 one rainy new orleans morning...

* don't you think that the weather is fine dear?
lock up the house, we'll go for a drive...

1) we been working real hard, with the days too long,
we've got to get away.
jump in the car, bring the dog along,
everything can wait.

* don't you think that the weather is fine dear?
roll down the windows, we'll go for a drive...

2) just you and me, and marley makes three, we can't leave her behind.
here's a map we won't need of the places we'll see,we're going for a ride...

* don't you think that the weather is fine dear?
roll down the windows, we'll go for a drive...

(pianny solo!)

3) marley's in the back, got beatles on the box, not a cloud up in the sky.
there's some wine in my sack, and a lil' bit of pot, (as long as you don't mind).
later we'll stop long enough to eat beneath a shady tree.
and if it gets hot, we can fall asleep, fall in each others dreams...

* don't you think that the weather is fine dear?
roll down the windows, we'll go for a drive...
