She was livin' in a cadillac
SOLBedded down in the back seat
On a back street of the Hollywood hills
REWith a shoebox museum of memories
RE SOLOld photos and medical bills
She'd been a great actress in two dozen movies

DO SOLBefore the three husbands, six kids and bad breaks
Of fifty-eight odd years of age
Him they called fat boy wore grey overalls
SOL REAnd he clocked in at four hundred pounds

He'd been a great critic downtown

Though she bore no resemblance to the star he adored

In the moonlight of old Mineral Wells
