Lyrics
I met her at the car wash she was cleaning out her Chevy
In a dirty faded t-shirt forty miles from the levee
She was emptying her ashtray I was scraping off the tar
She asked me for a quarter I checked my penny jar
I handed her some loose change and it slipped right through her hands
We picked it up upon our knees comparing wedding bands
She asked me if I'd meet her and I asked
Is this a game?
She said
There's something missing
I don't even know your name!"
She was a girl named Rachael
A girl named Rachael
She had a hundred dollar facial and a thousand dollar pure bred cat
She was a girl named Rachael
A girl named Rachael
She had a hundred dollar facial and a thousand dollar pure bred cat
We headed towards the airport with our credit cards and lust
Praying that we'd never have to promise love or trust
The red-eye to Las Vegas Caesar's Palace what's in store?
There's an empty headed dreamer near the window at my door
At the airport at a slot machine we won a hundred grand
Bought us a Mercedes and drove off through the sand
Checked into the bridal suite and melted down our rings
Bet it all on ignorance blind love and other things
She was a girl named Rachael
A girl named Rachael
She had a hundred dollar facial and a thousand dollar pure bred cat
She was a girl named Rachael
A girl named Rachael
She had a hundred dollar facial and a thousand dollar pure bred cat
It ended like it started only pennies and some dirt
I'll never clean her memory out I've got lipstick on my shirt
I made it back to Texas ended up in the Midwest
Still trying to discover what it is that she does best
With her magic laugh at midnight and her thoughts in outer space
The frozen night denies her eyes she's wearing purple lace
I can almost feel my arms around her heated willing waist
She offered me a lifetime I settled for a taste
She was a girl named Rachael
A girl named Rachael
She had a hundred dollar facial and a thousand dollar pure bred cat
She was a girl named Rachael
A girl named Rachael
She had a hundred dollar facial and a thousand dollar pure bred cat
She was a girl named Rachael
A girl named Rachael
She had a hundred dollar facial and a thousand dollar pure bred cat
