Gladys & Vernon
Gladys and Vernon went out last night
She let him steal a kiss
In the blue moonlight
He's four years younger
And his jeans are torn
But he looks just like an angel
And his hands are warm
Gladys and Vernon
Need somewhere to live
She's got a child comin'
Something's gotta give
She's poor but in her heart
She knows some day she will
Die rich in a mansion on a hill
Gladys and Vernon
Are down in the church
Prayin' for their baby
Who didn't make it down to earth
Beside them is his brother
And he gives his mother joy
She cannot take her eyes off
That little poor boy
Good times on Franklin Road
