Leo Kottke Lyrics for Song: The Other Day (Near Santa Cruz)
 Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Leo Kottke
 
 
 
 29891>I met a guy the other day he said he had it all figured out
 
 He claimed he was ecstatic and he proved it with a shout
 
 "I like hippie chicks," he said, "they're not so damn dumb
 
 They don't sing like Ethel Merman, they don't imitate nuns
 
 
 
 "They comb their hair with porcupines and loofah their feet
 
 And they become indignant when you threaten them with meat
 
 Their windows grin like pumpkins filled with candles and beads
 
 Their beds are all futonic and there's babies on their knees."
 
 "But my mother wears a hat," he said, "extruded from a tank
 
 And my sister reads good housekeeping and worships at the bank
 
 My grandma loves Pat Robertson says he's it that's that
 
 And my wife says I'm a lunatic but hippie chicks are where it's at."
 
 
 
 He told me this while revving up his brand new pick up truck
 
 He wore a leather hat and shades above a 12-pack gut
 
 "I know where they got hippie chicks, they're all in Santa Cruz"
 
 Then he jammed a tape in his Blaupunkt and drove off born to lose
 
 
 
 Cause although he got the message he was deaf to the news
 
 There are no chicks in Santa Cruz
