Strawberrries an' Wild Honey

There's a full moon laughing in Huntsville

And it shines on Muscle Shoals, shines on Muscle Shoals

There's a bluesman an' his station wagon

Divine love out of control

She's a girl who's been to busy at Shoney's at the Interstate

Working nights to pay for college

Working days to pay the rent

Never mind, they got some money

Notice how the Doves don't race

Strawberries an' wild honey

Might as well just play the ace

There's no old town quite like Memphis

Then again maybe Birmingham, maybe Birmingham

Now the bluesman greets the morning

All is well, in guitar-land

He still can't quite stop from running

To police-up delinquent butts

It's been 40 years since basic training

But Ft. Benning never will rub off

Never mind, they got some money

Notice how the Doves don't race

Strawberries an' wild honey

Might as well just play the ace

I heat footsteps here in Texas

Where the whippoorwills glide, whippoorwills glide

It's the bluesman an' the fashion lady

Her guitars cased in cattle hides

Noe ol' blue on Sunday morning

Selling melons door to door

So his kids can go to Grambling

And his partner can keep his Ford

Never mind, they got some money

Notice how the Doves don't race

Strawberries an' wild honey

Might as well just play the ace

Never mind, they got some money

Notice how the Doves don't race
