You got under my skin again You raised the stakes Took your time Made your move Your tongue said come cowboy wont you stay Then you closed your hazel eyes Make like a tree lay down some roots Mama had to split Papa can't forget Still me and the babies grew I spent so much time couldn't tell us apart???? Listen I'm not saying I cannot change I'm not saying I'm not afraid I sure ain't the first the blues have kicked around I know part of me is wicked Altough some of me is brave I sure ain't??? You said I don't wanna hear How better of she'll be at dawn when the rooster crows So play me a song so if something goes wrong Nobody has to go Well you got under my skin again You raised the blinds and pulled the sun into the room I remeber how you told me everything rhimes So just choose your word boy then bend them like a spoon First you had me as a friend And you had me up against the piano with the broken teeth With your typewriter ribbon you had me again in your bedstraw(??) And fire You got under my skin again You raised the stakes Took your time Made your move Your tongue said come cowboy won't you stay You closed your hazel eyes Make like a tree Lay down some room
