Double E

Back in the country

Livin' on the double e

In the sunshine of her life

There's a ready young filly

And mom and daddy

Won't let her leave

Mom and papa won't let her go



But when they go out dancin'

She breaks out on her own

She's hot enough to

Burn the house down

And mom and daddy don't know



When edith and earl

Renamed the double e

They nearly made history

The neighbors rose up

And some of them were mad as hell

'Cause it used to be the double L



Change comes slow in the country

When you're new

There's a lot of distrust

Years pass by uneventful

And memories turn to dust



Meanwhile granny

Has got her bright colors on

The sunshine in her eyes

Cruisin' by the bars

And honky tonks where she met grandpa

And caught that young man's eye



Dusty white eldorado

Cruisin' through the trees

Slippin' through the shadows

Of what used to be



Back in the day

Livin' in the summer of love

Livin' in the summer of love



Grandma's ok

But not the same since grandpa's gone

She's livin' in the summer of love



Back in the day

Livin' in the summer of love

Livin' in the summer of love



Livin' in the summer of love

Livin' in the summer of love

Livin' in the summer of love
