todd snider - ford econoline lyrics

[verse 1]
she drove west from salt lake city to the california coastline
she hit the san diego freeway doing sixty miles an hour
she had a husband on her bumper, she had five restless children
she was singing sweet as a mockingbird in that ford econoline

[chorus]
she was the salt of the earth
straight from the bosom of the mormon church
with a voice like wine
cruising along in that ford econoline (ford econo, ford econoline)

[verse 2]
but her husband was a gambler, a salt lake city rambler
he built a golden cage around his silver+throated wife
so many nights he left her crying with his cheatin’ and his lyin’
but his big mistake was him buying her that ford econoline

[chorus]
she was the salt of the earth
straight from the bosom of the mormon church
with a voice like wine
cruising along in that ford econoline (ford econoline)

[bridge]
she sings her songs around this country
from seattle to montgomery
and them kids are grown and that rounder knows
you cannot cage your wife (woo)
along the back roads of our nation
she’s become a living legend
she drives a coupe de ville but her heart rides still
in that ford econoline
[chorus]
she was the salt of the earth
straight from the bosom of the mormon church
with a voice like wine
cruising along in that ford econoline (ford econo, ford econoline)

[outro]
with her foot on the gas, she never looked back
in that ford econoline
she keeps cruising along
in that ford econoline
