lyrics

come hear my story you drunken young men
I'm a woman you've known ten times over again
l've kicked up my heels was a right happy whore
I've laid on my back 'til I felt pain no more

I've whispered your name deep into the dark night
I told you the lies that would make you feel right
kissed all your sorrow, so we both could smile
now I'm a woman alone with my life

no I don't want you to buy me a beer
and there's nothing on the juke box that I want to hear
don't spend no more money to get me my kicks
all that I'm saying is passion's a fix

religion or fishing or junk or cheap sex
we're all burning fires to help us forget
the skin and bone fabric of all or our dreams
and the fact that real life just ain't what it seems
