Happy Ending Kids - Nils Lofgren

I found him sneaking round my store

I call my place «Sounds To Go»

My rent is 80 meals a week

I thought you should be first to know

Being his folks, I know this comes as bad news

So I’ll let you in on something, before you cry the blues

Your boy’s got soul, yes he’s easy, he’s in control

You you gotta go easy, he’s a gem, he’s one of them

Happy Ending Kids

He was checking out a Fender, drowsy I was resting my eyes

He took a Stratocaster and ran, not to my surprise

I had to go over and disturb him

I wore out the seat of his pants

Pu the axe in his trembling hands, said try to make me dance

He’s really got soul

I’d say he’s got it under control

You know you gotta go easy

He’s a gem, he’s one of them
