She was a level headed dancer on the road to alcohol.

And I was just a soldier on my way to Montreal.

Well she pressed her chest against me,
C
About the time the jukebox broke.
D7
Yeah, she gave me a peck on the back of the neck,
G
And these are the words she spoke.
[Chorus 1]
G
Blow up your T.V.. Throw away your paper.
D G
Go to the country. Build you a home.
G
Plant a little garden. Eat a lotta peaches.
D G
Try an find Jesus, on your own.

Well, I sat there at the table, and I acted real naive.
D7 G
For I knew that topless lady, had something up her sleeve.

Well, she danced around the bar room, and she did the hoochy-coo.

Well, I was young and hungry, and about to leave that place.
D7 G
When just as I was leavin', well she looked me in the face.

I said "You must know the answer". She said "No but I'll give it a try".
D7
And to this very day, we've been livin' our way.
G N.C.
And here is the reason why.

We blew up our T.V. Threw away our paper.
