She was a flower for the taking. Her beauty cut just like a knife. He was a banker from Macon. He swore to lover her all his life. . He bought her a mansion on a mountain.
Whoa, whoa. Da daa da daa, da daa da daa, da daa da daa. (Ooh). . Lover, it's an endless night. And I'm alone with these regrets of hurting you. Never thought I'd be misled.
People Like Me. Never went to college. Except the parties I was playing. For the sigma kappa ladies on Friday night. So I spent a lot of weekends. With some future doctors girlfriend.
At the Dairy Queen one summer. In a far West Texas town. The girl was all of 16. She was woman pound for pound. . Slippin' dollars in the juke box. Playing ZZ Top and Merle.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. . You gave me touchin' and lovin'. And took me to the moon. You gave me feelin' and pleasure. Then left too soon. Oh baby, get ready.
It's not what you do, it's what you say. I heard things about you around the way. I don't know if it's true, I'm just sayin'. Words have a strang way of haunting you.
She played me like an old church song, you barely know but you sing along anyway. She held me like another drink, the one you know you just don't need but you have to take.
Ho yeah. I miss, you know. . It was just another day like the day before. I was walking in the rain with a lonely, lonely heart. I wasn't looking for a change, wasn't looking for a girl.
The answering machine says you'll be late again, third time this week. And I know what you're doing but to tell the truth it's a relief. 'Cause that means she and I will have a little extra time and we won't be in such a hurry.
Your taste still burns my tongue. Your scent still lingers in my lungs. Your blood still sings that melody. A song that is written just for me. . Right or Wrong.
Markin' time on this concrete wall. Seems like it wasn't all that long. She caught my eye with her devilish grin. Every pistol needs a firing pin.. . She said she loved me 'cos I was dangerous,.
I always told you. You were the only one in my life. I always hoped you'd, you'd be that special love. Here by my side. I know you're wonderin', if I'm really feeling you.
Broken on the inside, that's what I used to say. Then I'd pack my bags and raise the white flag, and I'd drive away. I thought that's what made me strong, well I was young and I was wrong.
You can reach me by railway, you can reach me by trail way. You can reach me on an airplane, you can reach me with your mind. You can reach me by caravan, 'cross the desert like an Arab man.
The band has quit playing. And the house lights are on. Pry this drink from my fingers. And the good times are gone.. . There's a girl in the corner. She's been waiting all night.
For once in my life. I have someone who needs me. Someone I needed so long. For once unafraid. I can go where life leads me. And somehow know I'll be strong.
Philosophers and poets, and songwriters too,. Have told stories through the ages,. 'Bout what friends can do to you.. Their envy and betrayal, can drive a man to drink,.
Oh yeah,. Oh baby, yeah. . Let me say, I've been Jonesin' girl. And I've never been that kind. But anyway, you ain't knowing girl. Got me twisted out my mind.
How much time has passed since you said goodbye. Got your message today asking how am I?. Well I'm doing just fine to admit the truth. Hasn't crossed my mind, all I needed was some time.
I know your in love. Yeah. Oh Baby. . Hey lady, I know I should be the last one. Who's telling you how to run your life. But I'm feelin' like my conscience won't let it go.
