Her daddy told her all the facts |
|
His momma taught him how to act |
|
At puberty they paid their dues |
|
The pool-hall was the moulin rouge |
|
And he likes her skirt |
|
And she like his tight levi's |
|
Fanning flames of the fire |
|
That burned higher than the fire in their eyes |
|
Momma's downtown on her lips |
|
Daddy's on a business trip |
|
A pinch from momma's treasure chest |
|
Daddy comes up with the rest |
|
And some people's kids don't know how fast time flies |
|
Now their paying for the fire burning higher than the fire in their eyes |
|
Some peoples kids can't see |
|
All some people's kids really need |
|
Is someone to be there |
|
To love 'em and to care, about them |
|
Daddy was a rollin' stone |
|
Momma chose to live alone |
|
Susie's out there on the wine |
|
Jimmy was friend of mine |
|
And some peoples kids gotta sing so it's no surprise |
|
That the flame of the fire's burnin' higher than the fire in their eyes |
