Whenever We Wanted Lyrics - Mellencamp John Cougar

We weren't afraid of nothing 

Wasn't nothing we couldn't do 

She held her breath once for seven minutes 

And never turned blue 

She could burn a woman down 

If she felt she'd been unkind 

or if she thought she was coming on to me 

It drove her out of her mind 

CHORUS 

Oh yeah, it's true 

We just did what we did 

Whenever we wanted to 

Yeah, it's true 

We just did what we wanted 

Whenever we wanted to 

She was my very best friend 

My biggest enemy 

On judgment day we would go either way 

It was all the same you see 

She was not afraid of Satan 

In fact she thought he was a joke 

Said she'd tear off his tail 

And run her fist down his throat 

CHORUS 

She was the apple of temptation 

The apple of my eye 

Used to rest on a bed of burning coals 

Every single night 

And I know she's out there somewhere 

She's wrestling in the bones 

With confetti in her hair 

You can bet she's not alone 

CHORUS
