Tom Paxton - Gas Line Romance lyrics

I met my love At the end of the line She was sittin' in hers I was sittin' in mine We were waiting for gas Out Santa Monica way It was beginning to look like It would take all day We were fated to meet And I can show you how Our licence plates were both even And we both said - oh wow We were inching forwards We continued to chat We both turned out to be Pisces Can you imagine that Though she answered to Bambi Her folks had named her Ruth Her licence plate was so humble It simply said ‘For Truth' I said this crisis Was gettin' me down Bambi said she was counting On Jerry Brown Jerry Brown was her hero Bambi thought he was cool I replied I can hear you He is nobody's fool He knows about music He knows about dress You talk about Jerry You're talkin' gas We finally got to the gas pump Bambi got her gas To me they said sorry But that was the last I blushed and remembered But I confessed that I cried As Bambi seemed to grow cooler My engine spluttered and died The last I saw of my true love She was pulling away She said she would see me We'd take a meeting someday Goodbye to my Bambi There's a tear in my eye I'll remember forever The day the pumps went dry
