| Lyrics: | bobby says he thinks he'd like to marry into money he just needs to find a rich girl without class becky says I remember when you were the nicest guy in town but now you're sinking to the bottom with the rest john and gene just cant agree on how the town should mend the seams of a budget that keeps getting out of hand mary stands behind the grill she nods her head she knows the drill the only news she hears is secondhand day after day she thanks god it stays the same did you hear do you know well I don’t know for sure it's just something that I overheard from pat and carolina everything you'd ever want to know at the northway diner old man felts is getting ill someone saw his final will and that good for nothing son is out of luck the house and farm the old woodshed a vacation house in hilton head is going to his mistress in new york it's supposed to snow a foot today same thing they said yesterday the ski resorts are gonna lose their shirt local politicians say that better days are on the way well tell that to the people out of work CHORUS just make sure you tell all the folks huddled 'round their eggs and toast but if you say my name and where this information came I'll deny it to my grave did you hear do you know well I don’t know for sure it's just something that I overheard from pat and carolina everything you'd ever want to even if you didn't think you ought to know but now you do I know I can confide in you just off the interstate everybody knows your name at mary's northway diner at the northway diner |
