Harlot

Why did I let him back into my life
When I know it will cause only pain, tears and strife

Perhaps I’m afraid I’ll never have another
Man so attentive as this sexy Latin lover

He blows into town finds a snow shovel
Breaks up the ice from ‘round my tiny hovel

Asks me if I’m hungry and takes me out to eat
Lets me sit down first to get me off tired feet

I found he has a family In another state
A wife and children after several a date

It goes against my principles to date a married man
It goes against my morels that was never the plan

He’s a smooth talker knows just what to say
To make a woman change her mind and come back to play

You picked the wrong woman to run your game on
This rodeo my friend I’ve ridden until dawn

Never will you catch me nor will I change my mind
My morals and principles will always step out from behind.
