Honest with Me |
| Well, I’m stranded in the city that never sleeps |
| Some of these women they just give me the creeps |
| I’m avoidin' the Southside the best I can |
| These memories I got, they can strangle a man |
| Well I came ashore in the dead of the night |
| Lot of things can get in the way when you’re tryin' to do what’s right |
| You don’t understand it—my feelings for you |
| You’d be honest with me if only you knew |
| I’m not sorry for nothin' I’ve done |
| I’m glad I fought—I only wish we’d won |
| The Siamese twins are comin' to town |
| People can’t wait—they're gathered around |
| When I left my home the sky split open wide |
| I never wanted to go back there—I'd rather have died |
| You don’t understand it—my feelings for you |
| You’d be honest with me if only you knew |
| My woman got a face like a teddy bear |
| She’s tossin' a baseball bat in the air |
| The meat is so tough you can’t cut it with a sword |
| I’m crashin' my car, trunk first into the boards |
| You say my eyes are pretty and my smile is nice |
| Well, I’ll sell it to ya at a reduced price |
| You don’t understand it—my feelings for you |
| You’d be honest with me, if only you knew |
| Some things are too terrible to be true |
| I won’t come here no more if it bothers you |
| The Southern Pacific leaving me at nine forty-five |
| I’m having a hard time believin' some people were ever alive |
| I’m stark naked, but I don’t care |
| I’m going off into the woods, I’m huntin' bare |
| You don’t understand it—my feelings for you |
| Well, you’d be honest with me if only you knew |
| I’m here to create the new imperial empire |
| I’m going to do whatever circumstances require |
| I care so much for you—didn't think that I could |
| I can’t tell my heart that you’re no good |
| Well, my parents they warned me not to waste my years |
| And I still got their advice oozing out of my ears |
| You don’t understand it—my feelings for you |
| Well, you’d be honest with me if only you knew |
