Well, I've been out on the street since yesterday
|
Been looking for the woman that got away
|
A long-legged thing with a red dress on
|
The kind of woman you can't leave alone
|
Listen, if you see her, send her my way
|
Looking for the woman that got away
|
The last time I seen her she was looking good
|
I had a feeling that she understood
|
She slipped through my fingers in the middle of the night
|
I've gotta find my woman and treat her right
|
Listen, if you see her, send her my way
|
Looking for the woman that got away
|
If I ever get my hands on that woman again
|
I'm gonna lock my door and keep her in
|
She won't do no travelling, won't follow me 'round
|
I'm gonna keep my woman and leave town
|
