| My friend he fixed me up with a girl he said he knew
|
| He guaranteed we’d get along just fine
|
| And when I went to pick her up I found out what he meant
|
| He knows that strange and weird things are a hobby of mine.
|
| I wouldn’t take her to a dog fight
|
| Or any other place I’ve ever been
|
| I wouldn’t take her to a dog fight
|
| not even if she had a chance to win.
|
| Curiosity they say killed the cat
|
| And I’ve been the curious sort all of my life
|
| I hung around convinced she couldn’t really look that bad
|
| She got me drunk and when I woke up I had a wife.
|
| I wouldn’t take her to a dog fight
|
| Or any other place I’ve ever been
|
| I wouldn’t take her to a dog fight
|
| Not even if she had a chance to win.
|
| Well, now the years have passed and our daughter’s in her teens
|
| Her boy friend comes and hungs around the place
|
| He never takes her anywhere I don’t dare ask him why
|
| 'Cause she’s the spittin' image og her mama in the face,
|
| And I wouldn’t take her to a dog fight
|
| Or any other place I’ve ever been
|
| I wouldn’t take her to a dog fight
|
| Not even if she had a chance to win.
|
| I wouldn’t take her to a dog fight
|
| Or any other place I’ve ever been
|
| I wouldn’t take her to a dog fight
|
| Not even if she had a chance to win… |
