arthur and alice

arthur and alice played shuffleboard

down in denington today

then they packed the best picnic they could afford

and drove down by old tampa bay

forty-nine years on assembly lines

way back up michigan way

now they're in a trailer

ain't far of the pines

arthur and alice are doin' ok

arthur and alice make love every night

love in their own special way

sometimes by just holding each other tight

hoarding dreams of yesterday

but then sometimes they still love a good storm

just like on their wedding day

way down where even the winters are warm

arthur and alice are doin' ok

arthur and alice have seven grand kids

in ann arbor and in la

they'll come to visit

last winter they did

a busch gardens disney world day

poor arthur

he's got a bad heart and she's nearly blind

at least that's what doctors say

but his heart's full of love and she reads his mind
