Shady Lady |
Out from St. Louie, I wasn’t choosy |
I just wanted to get back on the road |
I hitched in cars, and worked in bars |
Lookin' for a place to lay down my load |
I met a lady, a shady lady |
And someone told her I was all on my own |
She poured a beer and said «When I’m finished here |
Hang around 'cause I’m taking you home |
Don’t worry I’ll treat you all right |
Don’t worry you can stay all night" |
And I thought it was any easy ride |
But I didn’t know where I was till I got inside |
She said «Okay sonny, give me your money |
And don’t start any foolin' around» |
I said «What?"I said «What |
Don’t you think you’re turning me upside down» |
She said «I don’t care, I’ve been everywhere |
And I’ve not been lookin' for you |
But I’ll take you in and give you a spin |
You’ll know some tricks by the time we get through» |
Shady lady, you want it all your own way |
Shady lady, you won’t let go of your prey |
Shady lady, eat me up and spit me out |
But let’s get started now I know what you’re talkin' about |
Now in the morning, as day was dawning |
Shady asked me if I’d stay there awhile |
I said «Stay? |
baby no way» |
But I couldn’t keep myself from a smile |
I said «Now no bye-bye's, go in and dry your eyes |
That ain’t fittin' for a lady like you |
Why not be smart, and give your life another start |
But take care now whatever you do» |
Shady lady I’m on my way |
Shady lady we’ll meet again one day |
And don’t worry 'cause when we do |
I’m gonna make sure that there ain’t very much left of you |
I gotta get out! |
