| When a girl has the heart of a mother
|
| It must go to someone of course
|
| It can’t be sister or brother
|
| And so I love my horse
|
| But horses are frequently silly
|
| Mine ran from the beach of Okhala
|
| And left me alone for a filly
|
| So I have picked you up
|
| I’m a sentimental sap, that’s all
|
| What’s the use of trying not to fall?
|
| I have no will, you’ve made your kill
|
| Cause you took advantage of me
|
| I’m just like an apple on a bough
|
| And you’re gonna shake me down somehow
|
| So, what’s the use, you’ve cooked my goose
|
| Cause you took advantage of me
|
| I’m so hot and bothered that
|
| I don’t know my elbow from my ear
|
| I suffer something awful each time
|
| You go and much worse when you’re near
|
| Here I am with all mys burned
|
| Just a babe in arms where you’re concerned
|
| So lock the doors and call me yours
|
| Cause you took advantage of me
|
| I’m a sentimental sap, that’s all
|
| What’s the use of trying not to fall?
|
| I have no will, you’ve made your kill
|
| Cause you took advantage of me
|
| I’m just like an apple on a bough
|
| And you’re gonna shake me down somehow
|
| So, what’s the use, you’ve cooked my goose
|
| Cause you took advantage of me
|
| I’m so hot and bothered that
|
| I don’t know my elbow from my ear
|
| I suffer something awful each time
|
| You go and much worse when you’re near
|
| Here I am with all mys burned
|
| Just a babe in arms where you’re concerned
|
| So lock the doors and call me yours
|
| Cause you took advantage of me
|
| You took advantage of me |
