SUBJECT: About a laundrymat.

LYRICS:
some call it the ribbon / some say the white line / i say truckstop living / well, it suits me fine / everyday of the week / everyday of the week / we heard some other fellers talking / i think it's going to be a good fight / tonight the radio is rocking / i'm going to hear my favorite song / if it takes all night / if it takes all night / if it takes all night / if it takes all night / i'm gonna wash my favorite shirt / in downtown marseilles / it's got the same old dirt / from up in calais / how many days and weeks? / how many days and weeks? / now every job is important / but still sometimes the money's right / i saw the ghost of johnny horton / he said we're going to make el paso / if it takes all night / if it takes all night / i lost my favorite cook / he left little siam / for many years i looked / he said here i am / every day of the week / every day of the week / some got to go and see their mama / some got to play a show tonight / i got to go and see my baby / when next i sleep i'll be with her / if it takes all night / if it takes all night / if it takes all night
