Send Me Down To Tucson (1979)

No one wants to go down to Tucson in the summer

So this time the boss chose me

I've been sort of restless yes he thought it might help if

I got away from my wife and family

There's been no other woman since the mother of my children

And in each and every way she's a lady

Now there's one that I'll remember a sultry night we spent together

And she satisfied the love inside of me

Go on and send me down to Tucson and I'll get the job done

And call up the one whose love is free

She may be easy and I love my lady

But the lady don't satisfy the love inside of me

I know the lady's not to blame cause they raised her prime and proper

While another takes her pleasures where she can

The one in Tucson she don't hide it and when she gets excited

She makes you feel your every inch a man

But if I could have a wish that I knew would be granted

Don't you know that one wish would be

Just to lay beside my lady and she'd be the kind of lady

To satisfy the love inside of me

Go on and send me down to Tucson and I'll get the job done

And call up the one whose love is free

She may be easy and I love my lady

But the lady don't satisfy the love inside of me

Go on and send me down to Tucson and I'll get the job done

Go on and send me down to Tucson and I'll get the job done
