Lyrics

[Chorus] Papa, come quick, Jody's gone to the city What we gonna do now that Jody's gone? She's left a note on the TV and, papa, it's a pity What we gonna do now that Jody's gone? [Verse 1] Well, Mama's been cryin' in the kitchen since mornin' She cried right through "As The World Turns" I seen it myself and, papa, it's a bitch'n Let's haul ass before the baby gets burned [Refrain] Gas up the old Ford, get out the road map They got a head start, about half a day Load up the shotgun, put it in the gun rack Jody's with Chico down in East LA [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] It must've been that wild-eyed, silver-tongued schemer A girl like Jody don't think for herself Him and that Harley and his damn Jalapena Smokin' that stuff'll make you hurt yourself [Bridge] Papa, come quick Papa, come quick Papa, come quick Papa, come on [Chorus] Papa come quick, Jody's gone to the city What we gonna do now that Jody's gone? She left a note on the TV and Papa it's a pity What we gonna do now that Jody's gone? [Refrain] Gas up the old Ford, get out the road map They got a head start about a half a day Stop at the Mobil, pump up the flat wheel Jody and Chico and his ding dang deal [Verse 3] Mama's been cryin' in the kitchen since mornin' She cried right through "As The World Turns" I seen it myself and, papa, it's a bitch'n Let's haul ass before the baby gets burned
