He drove west from Salt Lake City to the California coastline
She hit the San Diego freeway doing 60 [A] miles an hour
[D] She had a husband on her bum, she had five restless children
She was singing as sweet as a mockingbird in [A] that 40 [D]-gono line
[G] She's so [D] [A] thirsty, found out [D] there's a lemon [G] tree in the Louisiana
[D] [A] Cruising [G] along in that 40-gono line
[D] Her husband was a hick and he was a Salt Lake City ram
And he'd build a gold cage around his silver [A] coat
He had a wife, [D] so many nights he left her crying
Oh, he was kicking and he was laughing
But his big mistake was in finding her in [A] that 40 [D]-gono line
[G] She's so [D] thirsty, found out there's a lemon [G] tree in the Louisiana

[G] [D] so thirsty, found out there's a lemon [G] tree in the Louisiana
[D] [A] Cruising along in [G] that 40-gono line
[D] Passing the songs around, they're so from Seattle to Macomb
Those kids are grown and that around her, no, you cannot [A] cage your wife
[D] Along the back roads of our nation, she'd become a living legend
She drives a coupe to feel the [A] hot grassy on that 40 [D]-gono line
She drives a coupe to feel the [Bm] hot [A] grassy on that 40 [D]-gono line
She hit the San Diego freeway doing 60 [A] miles an hour
