Lyrics Doreen - Old 97's

When
I
first
met
Doreen
She
was
barely
seventeen.
She
was
drinking
whiskey
sours
in
the
bar.
The
way
she
tossed
'em
back
I
would've
had
a
heart
attack.
But
as
it
is
I
let
her
drive
my
car.
We
galloped
through
the
boroughs
Like
a
pair
of
horny
thoroughbreds,
Until
I
said,
"Stop
the
car,
Doreen."
Well
you
can
roll
your
eyes
and
nod
But
I
swear
that
I
saw
God,
In
the
moonlight
on
a
side
street
in
the
wreckage
we
call
Queens.
Doreen,
Doreen,
Last
night
I
had
an
awful
dream.
You
were
laying
in
the
arms
of
a
man
I'd
never
seen.
Come
clean
Doreen.
Come
clean
Doreen.
Well
I'm
pulling
into
Cleveland
In
a
seven-seater
tour
van.
There's
eight
of
us,
so
I'm
sleeping
on
the
floor.
The
guy
that
plays
the
banjo
Keeps
on
handing
me
the
Old
Crow,
Which
multiplies
my
sorrow,
I
can't
take
it
anymore.
Doreen,
Doreen,
last
night
I
had
an
awful
dream.
You
were
laying
in
the
arms
of
a
man
I'd
never
seen.
Come
clean
Doreen.
Come
clean
Doreen.
Now
I'm
begging
and
I'm
pleading,
"Well
pull
over
guys,
I'm
bleeding.
There's
a
Fina
off
the
highway
with
a
phone."
I'm
calling
you
Doreen,
But
it
rings
and
rings
and
rings.
Where
is
it
that
you
are,
if
you
aren't
in
our
bed
at
home.
Doreen,
Doreen,
last
night
I
had
an
awful
dream.
You
were
laying
in
the
arms
of
a
man
I'd
never
seen.
Come
clean
Doreen.
Come
clean
Doreen.
