lyrics

My baby don’t pump no gas
My baby don’t pump no gas
You better call the attendant
Boy make it fast
My baby don’t pump no gas

My baby don’t tie no shoe
My baby don’t tie no shoe
She kicks ’em off on the sidewalk
Buys ’em brand new
My baby don’t tie no shoe

What’s my baby do?
Man, what’s it to you?
She’s got nothing to prove
That’s enough for my baby
It’s enough for you

My baby don’t hem no skirt
My baby don’t hem no skirt
It’s dragging low on her toenails
Down in the dirt
My baby don’t hem no skirt

My baby don’t flip no egg
My baby don’t flip no egg
Well you can wheedle and plead, boy
Fall down and beg
My baby don’t flip no egg

My baby don’t pump no gas
My baby don’t pump no gas
You better call the attendant
Boy make it fast
Kick the tires, check the oil
Wipe the dirt off the glass
She wants a clear rear view mirror
And she don’t wanna ask
My baby don’t pump no gas

Extremely hard to pick a favorite song, they're all so different but work together so well! Elle's gorgeous vocals and the inventive, varied instrumentals bring me back to listening to Elliott Smith on a Discman, for some reason. Maybe because the lyrics are full of heart and melancholy, but you just want to sing along. marmapuke
