Take a ride to the other side of the town 

Your eyes are open wide, look around 

And find out where you're going 

Social lady is a lawnchair wife, 

With a new hairstyle, and a different life 

Sleeps alone in her bed at night. 



Chorus: 

I don't have a tie 

To wear to your affair 

I don't have a tie to wear. 

I don't have a tie 

To wear to your affair 

I don't have a tie to wear. 



Take a ride to the other side of the town 

Your eyes are open wide, look around 

And find out where you're going 



Heavy Mary has to dance alone 

Till her weekend man comes to take her home 

Mary's ready, but she has to say no. 



Repeat chorus 



Oh, play children 

Play the game for free 

Oh, play children 

Play the game for free 



Take a ride to the other side of the town 

Your eyes are open wide, look around 

And find out where you're going 



Give a hand to your favorite son 

When he tries to walk and you make him run, 

Run son 



Repeat chorus
