Magnapop - Christmas Card From A Hooker In Minneapolis lyrics
Hey Charlie I'm pregnant
 and living on the 9th Street
 right above a dirty bookstore
 off Euclid Avenue
 And I stopped takin dope
 And I quit drinkin whiskey
 And my old man plays the trombone
 and works out at the track
 And he says that he loves me
 even though its not his baby
 And he says that he'll raise him up
 like he would his own son
 And he gave me a ring
 that was worn by his mother
 And he takes me out dancin
 every Saturday night.
 And hey Charlie I think about you
 everytime I pass a fillin station
 on account of all the grease
 you used to wear in your hair
 And I still have that record
 of Little Anthony & The Imperials
 but someone stole my record player
 Now how do you like that?
 Hey Charlie I almost went crazyMagnapop - Christmas Card From A Hooker In Minneapolis - http://motolyrics.com/magnapop/christmas-card-from-a-hooker-in-minneapolis-lyrics.html
 after Mario got busted
 So I went back to Omaha to
 live with my folks
 but everyone I used to know
 was either dead or in prison
 So I came back to Minneapolis
 This time I think I'm gonna stay.
 Hey Charlie I think I'm happy
 for the first time since my accident
 And I wish I had all the money
 that we used to spend on dope
 I'd buy me a used car lot
 and I wouldn't sell any of em
 I'd just drive a different car
 every day, dependin on how
 I feel
 Hey Charlie for Christsakes
 do you want to know the
 truth of it?
 I don't have a husband
 He don't play the trombone
 And I need to borrow money
 to pay this lawyer
 And Charlie, hey
 I'll be eligible for parole
 come Valentine's Day
