When I first met you, baby |
|
Weren't you a sweet, little thing |
|
Worked my fool head off |
|
Just to buy that diamond ring |
|
Now things are kind of funny |
|
You know the way it goes |
|
Now you want to put that ring |
|
Right on through my nose |
|
You put me through the grinder |
|
And I kept coming back for more |
|
Now all I want to see of you |
|
Is your back side headed out that door |
|
Well, you said you needed night school |
|
And I went along with that |
|
Till I followed you last Wednesday, baby |
|
Up to Sonny's flat |
|
I put one and one together |
|
And it added up to fool |
|
Cause what Sonny's got to offer, baby |
|
Ain't teached in any school |
|
You put me through the grinder |
|
You hurt me like an open sore |
|
I don't want no more excuses, baby |
|
Just get on out the door |
|
(Guitar solo) |
|
Ohh, they say this is a world of troubles |
|
Ohh, I've had my share |
|
But you're the kind of burden |
|
I really don't need to bare |
|
I came home a little early |
|
Lord, what I found there |
|
I walked in on you and Richard |
|
And your legs were up in the air |
|
I'm gonna put you through the grinder |
|
I'm gonna even up the score |
|
You better get yourself a lawyer, baby |
|
We're about to go to war |
|
What 'cha tryin' to do to me? |
|
Yeah, look here |
