Ford Econoline

Album: Nanci Griffith Durasi: 2:10
[00:05.57]She drove west from Salt Lake City to the California coastline
[00:07.58]She hit the San Diego Freeway doing sixty miles an hour
[00:10.33]She had a husband on her bumper, she had five restless children
[00:14.97]She was singing sweet as a mockingbird in that Ford Econoline
[00:19.54]She's the salt of the earth
[00:23.14]Straight from the bosom of the Mormon Church
[00:26.95]With a voice like wine
[00:28.74]Cruising along in that Ford Econoline
[00:32.39]Now her husband was a gambler, he was a Salt Lake City rambler
[00:37.96]And he built a golden cage around his silver-throated wife
[00:42.63]Too many nights he left her crying with his cheating and his lying
[00:48.08]But his big mistake was him buying her that Ford Econoline
[00:52.81]She's the salt of the earth
[00:56.45]Straight from the bosom of the Mormon church
[01:00.16]With a voice like wine
[01:02.04]Cruising along in that Ford Econoline
[01:05.85]She's the salt of the earth
[01:29.46]Straight from the bosom of the Mormon Church
[01:32.23]With a voice like wine
[01:34.97]Cruising along in that Ford Econoline
[01:40.38]Now she sings her songs around this country
[01:43.17]From Seattle to Montgomery
[01:44.95]Those kids are grown and that rounder knows
[01:47.73]You cannot cage your wife
[01:50.54]Along the back roads of our nation, she's become a living legend
[01:55.17]She drives a Coupe DeVille but her heart rides still
[01:56.96]In that Ford Econoline
[01:59.76]She drives a Coup DeVille but her heart rides still
[02:02.44]In that Ford Econoline
[02:10.65]🎵
