Terry Jacks - Pumpkin Eater lyrics

A 1954 Ford roars down the road A 1963 rain pouring as it came Uphill to the right Makes a left turn then a right And maybe yet tonight there will be some time An apple falling to the ground Yellowed by the sound And by the sound down the road I think it he that goes Uphill to the light Makes a left turn then a right And maybe yet tonight there will be some time Pumpkin eater just after July Always comes home in time for the pie Pumpkin eater just after July Always comes home in time for the pie Monday morning brings the light Something isn't right And running down she finds he's gone She walks across the lawn Finds the apple tree And watches as he leaves In 1963 as in time Pumpkin eater Just after July Always come home in time for the pie Pumpkin eater just after July Always come home in time for the pie
