HAVING A CRUSH ON THE LINDA RONDSTADT OF 1977

HAVING A CRUSH ON THE LINDA RONDSTADT OF 1977

when I was a kid
My dad had a crush on Linda Rondstadt
I thought it was funny and weird
I don’t know, he was lost…
toward the end of his marriagebut now I have one
I have a crush on Linda Rondstadt in 1977

no I’m not going to go live like it’s ‘77
and leave my wife

but there’s something in that
Arizona sand of Rondstadt of ‘77’s style

and when she comes in
with a wave of “blue bayou”
my idle numb mind
feels stupid
to be living this way-
without any passion

please Linda Rondstadt of 1977
give me something
worth singing for again
you did it for my dad
do it for me too
