LYRICS

Quarter in a payphone, drying laundry on the line
Watching Santi in the window
But I can't watch, the tellin' town
Seems like only yesterday, I get a blank cassette
Record the country countdown 'cause I couldn't buy it yet -
If we drove all the way to Dallas
Just to buy a Eastern dress
We take a long array McMally, stand in the line to pay for gas
God knows the shifts and gears, ain't what it used to be
I learned to drive that 55,
Just like a Queen, three on the tree!

Hey, whatever happened to, wait in your turn
Doing it all by hand
'Cause when everything is handed to you
It's only worth as much as the time you put in
It all just seemed so good the way we had it
Back before everything became
AUTOMATIC!

If you had something to say
You'd write it on a piece of paper
Then you put a stamp on it,
And they'd get it three days later
Boys would call the girls
And girls would turn 'em now
Staying married was on the way to work your problems out

Hey, whatever happened to, wait in your turn
Doing it all by hand,
'Cause when everything is handed to you
It's only worth as much as the time you put in
It all just seemed so good the way we had it
Back before everything became automatic, yeah!
AUTOMATIC!

1, 2, 3, 4
Let's pull the windows down
Windows with the Christ
Come on, let's take a picture
The kind they gotta shape!!

Hey, whatever happened to, wait in your turn
Doing it all by hand
'Cause when everything is handed to you
It's only worth as much as the time you put in
It all just seemed so good the way we had it
Back before everything became automatic, yeah!
AUTOMATIC!
