Miscellaneous
Margie's At The Lincoln Park Inn (1969)
My names in the paper where I took the Boy Scouts to hike
My hands are all dirty from working on my little boyâs bike
The preacher came by and I talked for a minute with him
My wifeâs in the kitchen and Margie is at the Lincoln Park Inn
And I know why sheâs there Iâve been there before
But I made a promise that I wouldnât cheat anymore
I try to ignore it but I know sheâs in there my friend
My mindâs on a number and Margie is at the Lincoln Park Inn
Next Sunday itâs my turn to speak to the young peopleâs class
And they expect answers to all the questions they ask
What would they say if I spoke on a modern day sin
And all of the Margieâs and all of the Lincoln Park Inns
The bike is all fixed and my little boyâs in bed asleep
His little warm puppy is curled in a ball at my feet
My wifeâs baking cookies to feed to the bridge club again
Iâm almost out of cigarettes and Margie is at the Lincoln Park Inn
And I know why sheâs there
