"It Took A Long Time" lyrics

"It Took A Long Time"

Oh, it took a long time
To get you off my mind
Oh, it took a long time
To get you off of my mind
Said you don't like my fishing
But you keep on wetting your line

Oh, it took a long time
To see you doing me wrong
Oh, it took a long time
To see you doing me wrong
Well, you tell me that you're leaving
But I don't miss the time you're gone

Oh, you're like a dog, baby
Carrying a bone
You don't want it
But you won't leave it alone
You had me eating
From the palm of your hand
Snap your finger, baby
I run to your command
Oh, it took a long time
To get you off my mind
Said you don't like my fishing
But you keep on wetting your line

Oh, you're like a dog, baby
Carrying a bone
You don't want it
But you won't leave it alone
You had me eating
From the palm of your hand
Snap your finger, baby
I run to your command
Oh, it took a long time
To get you off my mind
Said you don't like my fishing
But you keep on wetting your line

Oh, it took a long time
To make me feel this way
Oh, it took a long time
To make me feel this way
Well, I cried you a river
But now it's your time to pay
Said I cried you a river
But now it's your time to pay
Well, I cried you a river
But now is your time to pay
Well, I cried you a river
But now is your time to pay
