WOW!!!! Thats cool. It sounds like gas pump heaven.....

I dreamt I was there, in Gas Pump Heaven……
Oh what a beautiful sight….
The pumps were all shiny, the oil rack was full,
Oh what a wonderful night…..
The station attendant, he came out to help,
he had such a wonderful smile.
He said “How ya’ doin?”, he filled up my tank,
and we talked for a little while…..

(Chorus)
It was Gas Pump Heaven, what a beautiful sight…..
The people were very friendly….
The service was great, and the prices were right…..
Its so sad those days have ended…….

He washed my windshield,
he checked the oil,
He gently lowered my hood…….
He smiled when we talked,
And he checked all the tires,
he said that it all looked good…….

(Chorus)
It was Gas Pump Heaven, what a beautiful sight…..
The people were very friendly….
The service was great, and the prices were right…..
Its so sad those days have ended…….

As I drove away, I stopped to looked back,
he stood at the island, and he smiled right back.
I turned ‘round to thank him……
And then he was gone……
I stopped and I wondered, has it been so long…….

(Chorus)
It was Gas Pump Heaven, what a beautiful sight…..
The people were very friendly….
The service was great, and the prices were right…..
Its so sad those days have ended…….
