You Took Advantage of Me |
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 my bridges 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 my bridges 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 |
