Payback Rocks!!
This story was relayed to me......
Was there magic in those rainbow lights...
Shining on that bar room floor
'Cause last night something turned one beer
Into seven more!
Well...I got home just a little late
And I couldn't find my keys
I thought it was mighty nice of her.....
To open the door for me
And there she stood.......
Well she talked about my mother...
And then cussed me again
But I was bound and determined
To pitch my two cents in
With macho words like Why? and Don't!
And Oh baby....Please
I stood up to that woman!!
On my knees
Well that old couch was concrete hard
Since our waterbed was so smooth
'Thought I'd go upstairs and see
If she was in a better mood
So I knocked on our bedroom door
'Said honey I just can't sleep
'Thought it was mighty nice of her
To open up for me
And THERE she stood.....
Well she talked about my mother...
And then cussed me again
But I was bound and determined
To pitch my two cents in
With macho words like Why? and Don't!
And oh baby Please!!
I stood up to that woman!!
On my knees
