Robert Earl Keen
Jennifer Johnson & Me
[Verse 1]
Deep in the pocket of an old sport coat jacket
I chanced to discover an old memory
Three for a quarter, a black-and-white portrait
Taken of Jennifer Johnson and me

[Verse 2]
I'm in the corner, my shirt collar open
Like some Latin lover on late-night TV
Smiling right there with her head on my shoulder
It's Jennifer Johnson, she's lookin' at me

[Verse 3]
It must have been summer, 1967
The Beatles were singing "Love Is All You Need"
I held her hand as we walked through the arcade
Two young believers on a three dollar spree

[Chorus]
Three for a quarter, a black-and-white portrait
"Jen, close the curtain so no one can see
"Hey kiss me quick, 'cause the red light is flashing"
Flashing on Jennifer Johnson and me

[Verse 4]
Waiting on that late-night train back to home
I felt her warmth in the cool evening breeze
Told her I'd probably love her forever
Forever for Jennifer Johnson and me
[Chorus]
Three for a quarter, a black-and-white portrait
"Jen, close the curtain so no one can see
"Hey kiss me quick, 'cause the red light is flashing"
Flashing on Jennifer Johnson and me

[Outro]
Three for a quarter, a black-and-white portrait
Two young believers on a three-dollar spree
I saved your picture in my sport coat pocket
Jennifer Johnson, did you save one of me?
Jennifer Johnson, did you save one of me?
