Eddie's got a way Of looking at the world Through rose-colored glasses He's got a little of the Midas touch When it comes to mystery Never ever gonna show his cards That's just the way things are And I won't let go of Eddie for anything I met him at the 76 on my way to California I was paying for my lottery ticket And a can of ice-cold beer He was out of cigarettes Now we're calling off all bets And I won't let go of Eddie for anything I've got this feeling I've got a real good feeling Eddie's gonna get that job in South Calabasas We'll skinny dip in Silver Lake And make love all afternoon We might have to share one car But that's just the way things are And I won't let go of Eddie for anything No, I won't let go of Eddie
