From the recording Since Melvin Left Memphis
By Paul. A love song to Upstate New York in all its trailer glory.
Lyrics
There's a shack on a hill out in Cato
With a satellite TV
The roof leaks, the front porch is rotty
Sure seems like home to me
You say you don't understand it
How can I live like I do
I say there's no complication
You just need to know who's who
They got Mary in the bathtub
Tires on the rooftop
Honey, will you stop leading me on
Prudy, oh Prudy
I'm gonna get next to you
Oh Prudy, Prudy
I'm gonna get next to you
Someday my mama will leave me
Then I'll make room for you
You'll have more time just to tease me
You'll have a whole different view of me
They got Mary in the bathtub
Tires on the rooftop
Honey, will you stop leading me on
Prudy, oh Prudy
I'm gonna get next to you
Oh Prudy, Prudy
I'm gonna get next to you
Maybe we'll move back to Cato
Maybe Newport, Tennessee
Where we'll end up, child, I don't know
As long as you stand next to me
We'll have Mary in the bathtub
Tires on the rooftop
Honey, then you won't stop leading me on
And on and on and on and on
Prudy, oh Prudy
I'm gonna get next to you
Oh Prudy, Prudy
I'm gonna get next to you
Come on, come on
Prudy, oh Prudy
I'm gonna get next to you
Oh Prudy, Prudy
I'm gonna get next to you
I'm gonna get next to you
I'm gonna get next to you
