Outside Of That (04-28-23) |
I’ve got the meanest man in the land |
But his love is that sticking brand |
His kiss just lingers on my lips |
And thrill me to my fingertips |
People say I’m a fool |
He’s heartless and also cruel |
But outside of that, he’s all right with me |
Outside of that, he’s sweet as he can be |
I love him as true as stars above |
He beats me up, but how he can love |
I never loved like that since the day I was born |
I said for fun: «I don’t want you no more» |
And when I said that, I made sweet papa sore |
He blacked my eyes, I couldn’t see |
Then he pawned the things he gave to me |
But outside of that, he’s all right with me |
I said for fun: «I don’t want you no more» |
And when I said that, I made sweet papa sore |
When he pawned my things I said: you’re a dirty old thief |
Now, then he turned around and knocks out both of my teeth |
Outside of that, he’s all right with me |
