i'm looking for a clean spot on the counter   a place where i can make a little sandwich   and i'm sitting here at home   hoping you will hurry home      i've got a little piece of paper in my pocket   it's big enough to write to you a letter   and you say you're leaving town   and i'm jumping up and down      i've got a brain the size of texas in my cranium   and i'm smart enough to memorize your number   but i'll write it down the same   so i don't forget your name
