Jody Says
Jody says the doctors here are sweet but useless
Jody says hospital charts don't tell it all
Jody says she hears a gospel choir humming
Jody says she knows exactly what comes next
She says "Uh-oh I got to go

She says "Uh-oh I got to go

Jody says there's no point in pulling punches now
She says she's glad she had a chance to fool around
She says no one remembers long division
But she remembers rolling down that hill when she was five
She says "Uh-oh I got to go...

She says "Uh-oh I got to go...
