Crazy Ones - Lyrics by John Mellencamp


Lyrics
She
´s got tights on her legs
She
´s got a floppy french hat
Voodoo in her eyes
And endangered species on her back
She talks about the movies
She likes to talk about art
She can show you a good time
But you
´ll never touch her heart
Chorus:
Mama why do I always fall for the crazy ones
Mama why do they lay so heavy on my heart
Well i
´m drawn to the devil everytime we kiss
Mama why do the crazy ones leave me feeling like this
She
´s got backstage access
And she
´s dancin? in the aisles
She looks a little sad and crooked
When you see her smile
She
´s got the magic heart
She says you cannot understand
She
´s got a secret hurt
She ain
´t gonna share with no man
Chorus:
Mama why do I always fall for the crazy ones
Mama why do they lay so heavy on my heart
Well i
´m drawn to the devil everytime we kiss
Mama why do the crazy ones leave me feeling like this
She
´s got her mind on her business
She never wants to be broke
Well, I hate to see her suffer
But she just does not get the joke
I can
´t afford her style of living
I can
´t afford to get so mad
Everytime I think about her
It just makes me sad
Chorus:
Mama why do I always fall for the crazy ones
Mama why do they lay so heavy on my heart
Well i
´m drawn to the devil everytime we kiss
Mama why do the crazy ones leave me feeling like this
Mama why do I always fall for the crazy ones
Mama why do they lay so heavy on my heart
Well i
´m drawn to the devil everytime we kiss
Mama why do the crazy ones leave me feeling like this
