Gas Station Lover

Gas station lover, I know you don’t expect when you ask me out to dinner
I’ll do anything but reject your offer
You look at me & you say “Wow” just before you ask me out
It’s a rough old world & it’s nice to feel appreciated
One day when I win the Powerball with a ticket that you sold me
Cause I know you give me all the lucky numbers
I’ll write you a big six-figure check
You can quit your job, take some nice girl out
And while you take her dancing, I’ll play my piano, oh, oh, oh.

Gas station lover, you ask about my boyfriend.
Well, I don’t have a boyfriend. I lied because you were so persistent
asking me to dinner but now I’m fascinated with my imaginary boyfriend.
You ask me, “Does he know he’s lucky?” and I smile and say
“Oh yes, he knows he’s lucky.” Then I take my Lotto ticket
and I leave you there behind your counter
but someday I’ll surprise you and say, “Thank you
for making me feel beautiful. I was having a totally crappy day
and I still don’t want to go out with you, I just wanted you to know,
I just wanted you to know, and one day, one day,
one day when I win the Powerball with a ticket that you sold me
Cause I know you give me all the lucky numbers
I’ll write you a big six-figure check
You can quit your job, take some nice girl out
And while you take her dancing, I’ll play my piano, oh, oh, oh.

Gas station lover, I know you don’t expect when you ask me out to dinner
I’ll do anything but reject your offer
You look at me & you say “Wow” just before you ask me out
It’s a rough old world & it’s nice to feel appreciated
