"Paid In Advance" lyrics

"Paid In Advance"

You get the bill in the mornin' marked "paid in advance"
Paid in full by a friend
You may be good-lookin' and you don't need romance
But everyone needs a friend

I watch the dice as they roll outta my right hand
Like a fool, I thought I still had a chance
When a good-lookin' mama from the south of Siam
Said, "Honey, do you wanna dance?"
I said, "Yeah" (I said, "Yeah")

You get the bill in the mornin' marked "paid in advance"
Paid in full by a friend (Doo-doo-doo-doo)
You may be good-lookin' and you don't need romance
But everyone needs a friend (Doo-doo-doo)

Well, I may be right and I may be wrong
But I can tell you if the song, it is real
I've been singin' for oh-so long
I can tell it by the way that it feel
It feels good (It feels good, yeah)

You get the bill in the mornin' marked "paid in advance"
Paid in full by a friend (Doo-doo-doo-doo)
You may be good-lookin' and you don't need romance
But everyone needs a friend (Doo-doo-doo)

I watch the dice as they roll outta my right hand
Like a fool, I thought I still had a chance
When a good-lookin' mama from the south of Siam
Said, "Honey, do you wanna dance?"
I said, "Yeah" (I said, "Yeah")

You get the bill in the mornin' marked "paid in advance"
Paid in full by a friend (Doo-doo-doo-doo)
You may be good-lookin' and you don't need romance
But everyone needs a friend (Doo-doo-doo)
You may be good-lookin' and you don't need romance
But everyone needs a friend (Doo-doo-doo)
Everyone needs a friend
