Sweet Thang
Well I slipped out of the house about sundown while mama was a washing her hair And you can bet your bottom dollar she'll come a lookin' for me When she finds that I'm not there And if she catches her sweet thang a running around I know there'll be the debit to pay She'll come blowin' like a cyclone through that door And I can hear exactly what she'll say Well has anybody here seen SWEET THANG I got a notion he'll be HEADED THIS-A way Cause when my sweet thang IS out tomocattin' around He finds a sandbox like this to play I wanna tell all you barroom roses IF my sweet thang does HAPPEN BY You'd better take my advice AND IF YOU blink more than twice You'd better have something in your eyes [ guitar ] Well I gave my baby money on payday except a little she don't know that I've got Cause there's a cute little waitress down at the corner cafe And she seems to like me quite a lot Well we were sittin' in this back booth a havin' a talk And she's believed in every word that I said When the door blew open and mama walked in yellin' loud enough to wake the dead Well has anybody here seen sweet thang I got a notion he'll be headed this-a way Cause when my sweet thang is out tomocattin' around He finds a sandbox like this to play I wanna tell all you cafe cuties if my sweet thang should have a bite You'd better take mom's advice if you'll blink more than twice You'd better have something in your eyes You take all mom's advice if you'll blink more than twice You'd better have something in your eyes Aus Songtexte Mania
