Payin' For It Now |
| Met her in a night club |
| Alvey’s hideaway |
| I could tell by looking at her |
| That she had come to play |
| Bought her three gin and tonics |
| And we told each other lies |
| Then I headed to the motel |
| With my little prize |
| And I’m payin' for it now |
| Payin' for it now |
| She’s gone and so’s my wallet |
| And I’m payin' for it now |
| Girl took off, and took all my duckets |
| Then I ran into Maggie |
| Old friend of mine |
| She said, «Let's do some reminiscing» |
| «Go and get some wine.» |
| She could drink just like a sailor |
| Got as drunk as I could be By the time the night was over, yeah |
| The joke it was on me And I’m payin' for it now |
| Payin' for it now |
| She took me off the market |
| And I’m paying for it now |
| She was soft and friendly |
| And willing as can be Had a pretty little tattoo |
| Right above her knee |
| I got it down to business |
| Then I fell asleep |
| She said I made her promises, promises |
| That she’s expecting me to keep |
| And I’m payin' for it now |
| Payin' for it now |
| That girl was talkin' marriage |
| And I’m payin' for it now |
| Well I should have got suspicious |
| When she started acting nice |
| Should have read the signals |
| Should have thought about it twice |
| For eleven days running |
| She was cozy in the night |
| And when she laid it on me |
| You know, I didn’t even fight |
| And I’m payin' for it now |
| Oh Lord, I’m payin' for it now |
| Here comes her mother with her suitcase |
| And I’m payin' for it now |
| No, not my mother-in-law |
| Jeez, her daughter |
| No, no, no |
