"Dress Is Too Long" lyrics

"Dress Is Too Long"

Dress is too long

Drag on the floor when you walk and your dress is too long
Drag on the floor when you walk and your dress is too long
Yeah call up your ma and she'll cut it right off and pin it to your waist yeah your skin is so soft

And you drag baby... when you walk
You drag babe, when you walk

And you've got the softest lips that I've ever seen
And you've got the softest lips that I've ever seen
Oh girl what a shame don't you let 'em go to waste
Got your ginger red wine why don't you give me a taste?
Of the softest that I've ever seen
They're the softest that I've ever seen

You wanna play but you just don't know if you should
You wanna play but you just don't know if you should
You saw it once yeah but you were a kid
And you try to forget all those things that they did
But you want to, don't know if you should
Yeah you want to, don't know if you should
But you would

Yeah back in your room in the dark and your head starts to spin
Yeah back in your room in the dark and your head starts to spin
You kissed me once and you called it a mistake
And I tried to leave and you begged me to stay
In the dark, babe where your head starts to spin
Yeah the dark, where your head starts to spin
Around... around... around... around...

Yeah you think you should leave but you don't know which way to go
Yeah you think you should leave but you don't know which way to go
There's a fire to the east and it's dark in the west
So you just lay your head down on my chest
And you sleep babe, for days
Yeah you sleep babe for days
For days... days...

Drag on the floor when you walk and your dress is too long
Drag on the floor when you walk and your dress is too long
Said you Drag on the floor when you walk and your dress is too long
And you Drag on the floor when you walk
And you drag on the floor when you walk
And you drag on the floor when you walk
Dress is too long... dress is too long
Yeah your dress is too long
And your dress is too long
And your dress is too long
