Lyrics

Driftin' old Dan his deep rooted stubble Etched by past scrapes and blue scars Years of convictions stare from deep sockets They found each other in this cut-n-shoot bar "Corina" he cried through the spitting and snorting "You're the only girl I ever loved" As Lucky Strike stained workingman's fingers Shook fists at the stars above Come as you are to the Double Star Wish on the stars above You won't find champagne or caviar but You may find the one you love She thought back to the day she first met him And got rid of her old single bed As the terrycloth towel soaked up what spilled over From the glasses perched high overhead Minimum wage didn't pay for the days The groping and lewd comments did fly Tonight some drunk stranger made a pass at his woman Without thinking Dan hit the guy Come as you are to the Double Star Wish on the stars above You won't find champagne or caviar but You may find the one you love A man of few words Dan tended his wounds Then fell back to their shack east of town She cried a few tears remembering the years She'd waited for him to cool down Her key in the door and the creak of the floor He looked up from his chair as she passed Through all the pain he knew that she loved him Next day they'd start over again Come as you are to the Double Star Wish on the stars above You won't find champagne or caviar but You may find the one you love
