If i met you you were mistaken
|
And i'll bet you'll be gone today
|
Cause you got what you wanted from others
|
But you found out it's not my way
|
|
And i'll never lend you my records
|
And i'll never lend you the cash
|
Cause to you it's always like christmas
|
And i know you're just a flash in the pan of love
|
|
Well you hustle drinks from the cotton twill boys
|
Even ones you didn't know
|
Made him work for his last dollar
|
And you made him walk home in the snow
|
|
You thought it was rough when you thought you were down
|
Your living in greed got you running around
|
Thought it was love but you sure had to go
|
Thought it was free now you spend it alone
|
|
So don't tell me that the men don't love you
|
You made the rules you've got to sleep with the game
|
Hustle wine on wednesdays and thursdays
|
Want a husband the rest of the days
|
Then you ask if this song's got your name on it
|
Is this song about you or for you
|
Guilt is the only cause in the world for your fear does it really annoy you
|
|
You thought it was rough when you thought you were down
|
Living in greed got you running around
|
Thought it was love but you sure had to go
|
Thought it was free now you spend it alone
|
|
You thought it was free
|
Thought it was free
|
You thought it was free
|
Thought it was free
|
You thought it was free
|
|
It takes a truck to take what you've taken
|
I gotta squint to see what you gave
|
It takes a shovel to hear what you're talking
|
It takes a miracle to make you stay
|
|
You thought it was rough when you thought you were down
|
Living in greed got you running around
|
Thought it was love but you sure had to go
|
Thought it was free now you spend it alone
|
|
You thought it was free
|
You thought it was free
|
You thought it was free
|
You thought it was free
|
