The Take-It-Easy Trailer Park by Kinky Friedman Lyrics
(Kinky Friedman, Van Dyke Parks)
An L.A. Coke-dealer, a Georgia faith-healer
A boy scout and a junked-out Joan Of Arc
And they've all come together through life's stormy weather
To the take-it-easy trailer park
And head up high in my air-stream my life is a pipe-dream
My neon neighbors find me quite insane
LiKe a world-weary sailor I've dry-docked my trailer
I just call her the Ol' Battleship Maine
Dear mom and dear dad
Life is happy, life is sad
Love is easy when you, when you follow your heart
Oh and that's why I came here
There's no one to blame here
At the take-it-easy trailer park
And There's ol' Aunt Jemima from North Carolina
There's Uncle Ben and dear ol' Uncle Sam
And There's one who reminds me of the one I left behind me
But frankly Scarlett, I don't give a damn ...
An L.A. Coke-dealer, a Georgia faith-healer
A boy scout and a junked-out Joan Of Arc
And they've all come together through life's stormy weather
To the take-it-easy trailer park
Dear mom and dear dad
Life is happy, life is sad
Love is easy when you, when you follow your heart
See them tears in the skies
See the stars in my eyes
At the take-it-easy, take-it-easy
Take-it-easy trailer park
An L.A. Coke-dealer, a Georgia faith-healer
A boy scout and a junked-out Joan Of Arc
And they've all come together through life's stormy weather
To the take-it-easy trailer park
And head up high in my air-stream my life is a pipe-dream
My neon neighbors find me quite insane
LiKe a world-weary sailor I've dry-docked my trailer
I just call her the Ol' Battleship Maine
Dear mom and dear dad
Life is happy, life is sad
Love is easy when you, when you follow your heart
Oh and that's why I came here
There's no one to blame here
At the take-it-easy trailer park
And There's ol' Aunt Jemima from North Carolina
There's Uncle Ben and dear ol' Uncle Sam
And There's one who reminds me of the one I left behind me
But frankly Scarlett, I don't give a damn ...
An L.A. Coke-dealer, a Georgia faith-healer
A boy scout and a junked-out Joan Of Arc
And they've all come together through life's stormy weather
To the take-it-easy trailer park
Dear mom and dear dad
Life is happy, life is sad
Love is easy when you, when you follow your heart
See them tears in the skies
See the stars in my eyes
At the take-it-easy, take-it-easy
Take-it-easy trailer park
