Bet no one ever called you that
Standing there disheveled
In your tattered coat and cowboy hat
Put your arms around me
Say good bye... Say good bye
You are at the bottom
Of the corporate ladder totem pole
You wear your heart upon your sleeve
In it is a bullet hole
Shot through by every sheriff
With a badge in every town
You stood beneath the street light
With the moon above you and a star
Waiting like a gentleman
While I parked a rented car
I have been around the block
Chugging hard right off the rail
Discarded like a box of chinese food
Into the garbage pail
Let's look at the college kids go by
College kids go by
Honey bunch... Sugar cube
You took me for an ice cream cone
We had some belly laughs
And I said, well
I guess I'm goin' home
Put your arms around me
Say good bye.... Say good bye
Some people gotta roam this earth
Never really fitting in
A stranger to the very
Chair they're sitting in
Sweetie pie.... Sweetie pie
O how I depend on you
Standing there confused
With your shattered dreams
Nothin' to lose
You always say I love you
When you say good bye
When you say good bye, sweetie pie
Sweetie pie... Sweetie pie Bet no one ever called you that Standing there disheveled In your tattered coat and cowboy hat Put your arms around me Say good bye... Say good bye You are at the bottom Of the corporate ladder totem pole You wear your heart upon your sleeve In it is a bullet hole Shot through by every sheriff With a badge in every town You stood beneath the street light With the moon above you and a star Waiting like a gentleman While I parked a rented car I have been around the block Chugging hard right off the rail Discarded like a box of chinese food Into the garbage pail Let's look at the college kids go by College kids go by Honey bunch... Sugar cube You took me for an ice cream cone We had some belly laughs And I said, well I guess I'm goin' home Put your arms around me Say good bye.... Say good bye Some people gotta roam this earth Never really fitting in A stranger to the very Chair they're sitting in Sweetie pie.... Sweetie pie O how I depend on you Standing there confused With your shattered dreams Nothin' to lose You always say I love you When you say good bye When you say good bye, sweetie pie Explain Request ×
