I tried my best just to stay at rest
|
When the moon and the wind both died
|
But you locked me in with your best friend
|
Honey your window was open wide
|
I escaped in time to see your man
|
Truckin' in that bar again
|
He was fondlin' Lucy and singin' to Suzy
|
Suckin' up a bottle of gin
|
|
You said you'd see me 'bout half past nine
|
I said I'd see you at ten
|
I knew that I lied to you
|
But I didn't know that we both lied to your man
|
Well I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw him
|
Truckin' back in that bar again
|
He's still fondlin' Lucy, he's been singing to Suzy
|
And suckin' on that bottle of gin
|
He's still got a hold of Lucy, fondlin' Suzy
|
Suckin' on that bottle of gin
|
|
I headed for the door when you hit the floor
|
Your man hit me in the head
|
I hit the windows and I hit the walls
|
And it hit me that I might be dead
|
I was thinkin' slow and sinkin' low
|
And I saw that man again
|
He's still got a hold of Lucy and he's fondlin' Suzy
|
Suckin' that big bottle of gin
|
Well, he's fondlin' Lucy, singin' to Suzy
|
Suckin' that big bottle of gin
|
