Appliance Time Again

(with apologies to Buck Owens and Ray Charles)

CHORUS

It's appliance time again, the fridge is broken
This old icebox it ain't workin' anymore
Yesterday she threw the mayonnaise in the garbage
A pool of water lies beneath the door.

The crisper holds the lettuce and the veggies
The temperature's gettin' mighty warm
Our box is livin' way beyond it's shelf life
We ain't chillin' out the way we did before.

CHORUS

The repair guy say the themostat stopped workin'
The beer is warm, the food has started thawin'
Got to shop for a new refrigerator
After writin' out the words to this sad song

CHORUS

Now they say AMANA's gonna need a woman
My gal says that's a brand I gotta try
But if she fills our icebox up with onions
I'll bow my head and slowly start to cry.

CHORUS

Well it's cryin' time again look what she leaves me
A dead refrigerator and what's more
This appliance and these cryin' eyes are grievin'
My babe walked out the house and slammed the door.

CHORUS

The FRIGIDAIRE stopped coolin' yesterday
And the WHIRLPOOL is headin' down the drain
Our love's defrosted baby, the ice just melts away
It's appliance time again, you know I'm leavin'

CHORUS
