Say I have known some less than I should
Say I have known some too well for my own good
Say I´m a saint of mercy, say I´m a whore
I´ve been a lot of things, but never yours
I wear my mama´s dress her finest clothes
Daddy showed me outside to meet you on the front porch
I laugh at all your jokes, but you look bored
I´ve been a lot of things, but never yours
You never cross my mind you can be sure
You´ll never catch my eye waiting for you watching the door
I let you hold me, dry lip kiss me on the dance hall floor
I´ve been a lot of things, but never yours
Never yours, never yours
Never yours, never yours
Never yours, never yours
Never yours, never yours
So you say you won, it was a bet
A game of pool or cards, I repay my family´s debt
I let you lie beside me, with no remorse
I´ve been a lot of things, but never yours
Say I have known some less than I should
Say I have known some too well for my own good
Say I´m a saint of mercy, say I´m a whore
I´ve been a lot of things, but never yours
