[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
On his way to dinner
When it took him by surprise
And with one pull of the trigger
He would vanish overnight
Dancing by the roadside
Holding on for dear life
Then a gun from out of nowhere
Made a widow of his wife

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I don't mind
Single file down the runway
Feeling fine
And I'll see you, my friend
Over and over again

[Chorus]
Who can we get on the case?
We need Perry Mason
Someone to put you in place
Calling Perry Mason again
Again
[Verse 2]
Riding painted horses
Oh, the kids they love it so
You can see it on their faces
How they love the wind to blow
Minding my own business
Like my mama always said
But if I don't try to help them
They could wind up on the front page

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I don't mind
Draw the line, then draw me an arrow
Feeling fine
And I'll see you, my friend
Over and over again

[Chorus]
Who can we get on the case?
We need Perry Mason
Someone to put you in place
Calling Perry Mason again
Again

[Bridge]
Wake me when it's over
Tell me it's all right
Just keep on talking, baby
I've been doing this all night
How much did you give me?
Tell me it'll be all right
[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus 3]
And I'll see you, my friend
Over and over again

[Chorus]
Who can we get on the case?
We need Perry Mason
Someone to put you in place
Calling Perry Mason again
Again, again, again, again
