Josh Ritter Kathleen Intro Lyrics

Oh, this is, this is, this is, this is about
Having a, a, a Lionel Richie tape
Do you know him?
And it's about having the tape in your pocket
And ah, and you're driving somebody home from a party
Because
Maybe it's the night
Maybe the night's your lucky night?
I hope so
Ha ha
And ah, and so you've got the tape all ready
And you've got the
And you're drivin' her home
Or him home, or whatever
And ah
You've got the tape in your pocket
Cued up to "Once, Twice, Three TImes a Lady"
Yeah
And, and, and you guide the car slowly into a ditch Real slow, kinda drivin' into the ditch all kinda sexy like
And ah, and the tape flies out of your pocket into the tape machine
And you're like tryin' to stop it, you know, but you can't
And it, it just goes in and you accidently push the button
And it starts playing
And, and, and it's it's beautiful
You know it's the most beautiful music ever
But she's already gotten out of the car and lifted it
Back onto the road
Because she's from Tipperary
And your night is wide open
