  • I was driving home early Sunday evening
    through Bakersfield

    Listening to Gospel music on the colored radio station
    And the preacher said,
    "You know you always have the lord by your side"
    And I was so pleased to be informed of this
    That I ran twenty red lights in his honor
    Thank you Jesus
    Thank you Lord
    I had an arrangement to meet a girl
    And I was kind of late
    And I thought by the time I got there, she'd be off
    She'd be off with the nearest truck driver she could find
    When I get there,
    There was so much to my surprise
    There she was sitting in the corner
    A little bleary, worse for wear and tear
    Was a girl with far away eyes
    So if you're down on your luck
    And you can't harmonize
    Find a girl with far away eyes
    And if you're downright disgusted
    And life ain't worth a dime
    Get a girl with far away eyes

    Well the preacher kept right on saying that
    All I had to do was send
    Ten dollars to the
    Church of the Sacred Bleeding Heart of Jesus
    Located somewhere in Los Angeles, California
    And next week they'd say my prayer on the radio
    And all my dreams would come true
    So I did, the next week, I got a prayer with a girl
    Well, you know what kind of eyes she got
    So if you're down on your luck
    I know you all sympathize

    Find a girl with far away eyes
    And if you're downright disgusted

    And life ain't worth a dime
    Get a girl with far away eyes
    So if you're down on your luck
    I know you all sympathize
    Seen a girl with far away eyes
    Seen a girl with far away eyes
