In the beginning, when life was simple. We were at each other night and day. You were so sensual and so inventive. We said we'd stick together come what may.
I'm listenin'. Caught up in a web of deception. From this shit I done learned new lesson. So what cha do, you keep on playing, you play on, playa. . From love to confusion.
You say you love me. Why do you always do me down down down?. I hit rock bottom. You gave me up without sound, sound, sound. But now I'm back in town and feeling mighty fit.
Stay home my child, stay home with me. Stay home my child, stay home with me. Oh please!. . When I first met you, you looked so soft. Sso feminine, you looked so lost.
Why I got to be that be the bigger woman, when these bitches know they got that shit coming. Fuck whats wrong and whats right, Im fucking up this bitch tonight.
Seasons come, people go. Lovers change, you don't know. You did change but we both agree. And you're not you and she's not me. . I feel like I've been abused.
I heard a story, all about you. I heard the secrets, maybe they're true. I read the papers, I read the news. I hear the gossip, all about you. They say that you're really not so prim and prude.
I'm so tired I'm tired that every time that I'm trying to build something with someone, someone coming behind me. Always trying to take my man, Always fucking with my plans see.
Cast all your fears aside. And say you will, say you will be mine. And stay with me until the end of time. And help me, help me grind this mill of life.
Seasons come, people go, lovers change you don't know. You did a ??? but we both agree, your not you and she's not me. I feel like, I've been abused, I mean it's like hand me down shoes.
Running out of luck, running out of speed. Lucking for some loving, yes I got the need. Must have spent a fortune, but did I spend it well. If I wanted water, I got it from the well.
I love you, I love you, honey I love you, I do. More than you ever know, say its for sure. You can count on me forever more. . I need you, I need you, baby I, I need you right now.
I'm a player in a game show. And it's poisoning my mind. I'm a string on someone's yo-yo. I feel my life is trivialised. I eat scandal for my breakfast.
Yeah you put me in the trash. Yeah you gave me up for lost. Now I see that you're doing alright. Take a look at me and count the cost. Baby can't you see I'm short on greens.
I was six years old when I fell down on Spencer Avenue. It was my Aunt, Suzy's house, and I still can see the bruise. I remember Grand Daddy and even though I never sat on his knee.
A place far in the future. And faces from the past. And children reading history books. Their faces light and laugh. It all seems so primitive. How did you survive?.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Every time you hurt me, I don't know. Why I can't throw your clothes out the window?. Every time I try to be strong and let you go.
No more sleaze ball, funky, low down, skunky juke joints. Where the drinks are knee deep on the floor. And the clientele is posed and angry. And the pretty girls are whores.
Im looking for something special you know ?. Some kind of strange. . I am nothing like any woman that you have met before. Im really what they call strange.
You used to be my party doll. But now you say the party's over. You used to love to honky tonk. But now the honky tonking's over. Now life is a bitter thing, my sweet.
