about

This is country song parody... with a feminist role reversal providing the twist. And I keep returning to that grunge-like fuzz guitar as if we were in a Seattle rain.

lyrics

It was out at Eddie's Truck Stop I first saw Lulu May
I was doin a little waiter work
when she stopped her rig that day
I looked across the register she put her money down
I tossed a joke so desperate, she didn't even turn around

I'm lookin down the highway lookin for Lulu May
she left this face a vacant place
waitin for her to turn this way

2.
one late night shift she lingered just long enough to say
just give me one rational argument
I need a reason to stay
this road stop sure gets lonesome
the grease gets on your hands
I long to hear that rig of hers rollin towards this man

i'm lookin down the highway lookin for Lulu May
she promised me she'd stop to see me
next time she came this way
