"Sweet Little Lisa" lyrics
"Sweet Little Lisa"
Well, the work whistle blew about a half past five o'clock
I saw the red light on the corner, man I never tried to stop
Got pulled over by a man in blue
He said "What the hell you tryin'a do?"
I told him 'bout my baby, he let me go, thanks a lot
Got invited to a party at a high school Hollywood pool
There were women all around me, man I began to drool
I weighed the evidence at hand
I said "Girls you gotta understand
Since I met my baby I've been livin' by the Golden Rule"
Aw, there ain't nobody gonna make me shout
Ain't nobody gonna put me out
Ain't nobody gonna make me do
Like my sweet little Lisa does
Ain't nobody gonna make me sing
Make me do the wrong damn thing
I'm sinking my head in a cold cold stream
Like my sweet little Lisa do
I was hauling out of Dallas, got pulled over by a debutante
She was playing with her gearshift, I was being kinda nonchalant
Said she'd take me up to her room
Keep me following with the Lorna Doones
I got a sweet sugar mama gonna give me everything I want
'Cause ain't nobody gonna make me shout
Ain't nobody gonna put me out
Ain't nobody gonna make me do
Like my sweet little Lisa does
Ain't nobody gonna make me sing
Make me do the wrong damn thing
I'm sinking my head in a cold cold stream
Like my sweet little Lisa do

You might not like my style
But we've been hanging around this town
Just a little too long a while

The Georgia Satellites - "Battleship Chains" You got me tied down with battleship chains
fifty foot long and a two ton anchor
tied down with battleship chains
fifty foot long with a two ton anchor
I can't move my arms

Shakin' Stevens - "So Long Baby Goodbye" I know
I've been foolin' myself too long
I'm never right but always wrong
Goodbye, Baby, so long

You never let this thing catch on
You never let me be that strong
Goodbye, Baby, so long...
Rodney Crowell - "Frankie Please" You tore through my life like a tornado looking for a trailer park
And your white trash mishmash short of cash culture clash hit the mark
We met on a Monday, here it is Sunday
It happened so fast,...
Nick Lowe - "She's Got Soul" I've just met what could be
The making of me
She's got soul
She's got soul
Out of the blue, into my world
I've found a pearl
She's got soul
She's got soul
I've been lonely so long
I stopped hoping...
