Ole Black 'n' Blue Eyes



Lyrics

Well, she wants to be a singer in the band
Maybe I'll give the girl a hand & a microphone looks like
She's all alone
She can bring a friend though she's not my kind of friend
She keeps jus' staring me out with her, ole black 'n' blue eyes

And I can take her dancing just to give the girl a chance
And I was never that good at being nice when I should
I guess she'll forgive right before she tries to kill me
Coz I sold her on yesterday's come take me home eyes

And I can take the the walzing just so she could kick my head in
Oh I do believe I was drunk and both of my heads had shrunk
I guess her name was Tina 'coz before I'd even seen her
I was lost in her what's your name, just get me fucked eyes
Oh, take me home eyes

And Chelsea says she's got nowhere to go
And if she does she's getting there slow
And I can help her out but I've got somewhere to be
And that's the very thing when you're dealing with me

Young souled, tiger begging me to bag her
Filthy heart & swollen hips,
And she said "Oh, my dearest i'm not pretty, isn't it a pity
That you won't kiss these rotten lips?

So take me home eyes
Ole black 'n' blue eyes

And Chelsea said she's got nowhere to
And if she does she's getting there slow
And I can help her out but I've got somewhere to be
And thats the very thing when your dealing with me
