Fire Hydrant No. 79

Fire hydrant No 79
Standin' on the corner by the no-parking sign
You're the only friend I got in Nashville Tennessee
You work for the city in the rain and in the fog
Gettin' no respect from the neighborhood dogs
And when I sing you're the only thing that listens to me

Fire hydrant stumpy and red
I love you even though you got no hair on your head
Today I hocked my guitar to buy you and me a bottle of wine
Well I'm goin' away cause you'll never be mine
I know you're in love with the no-parking sign
Well I'm gonna miss you fire hydrant No 79
[ instrumental ]
Fire hydrant built like a jug
When I'm feelin' low you're always good for a plug
Today I hocked my guitar to buy you and me a bottle of wine
Well I'm goin' away cause you'll never be mine
I know you're in love with the no-parking sign
Well I'm gonna miss you fire hydrant No 79

I'm gonna miss you fire hydrant No 79
Oh it's beautiful
I'm gonna miss you fire hydrant No 79
Look at on me one more time
I'm gonna miss you fire hydrant No 79
I'm gonna miss you fire hydrant No 79
