Once Bitten, Twice Shy

(I love her)

Well, the times gettin' hard for you little girl

I'm a hummin' and a strummin' all over God's world

You don't remember when you got your last meal

And you forgot just how a woman feels

You didn't know what Rock 'n' Roll was

Until you met a drummer on a Greyhound bus

I got there in the nick of time

Before he got his hands across your state line

Well, in the middle of the night on the open road

And the heater don't work, and it's oh, so cold

You're gettin' tired, baby, lookin' kinda beat

The music of the street, drive you off your feet

You didn't know how Rock 'n' Roll looked

Until you caught your sister with a guy from the groove

Half-way home in the parking lot

By the look in her eyes, she was givin' what she got

And now, ah, ah, aw

Once bitten twice shy, babe

And now, ah, ah, aw

Once bitten twice shy, babe

And now, ah, ah, aw

Once bitten twice shy, babe

Woman you're a mess, gonna die in your sleep

All the blood on my hand and my Les Paul heat

I can't leave you home 'cause you're runnin' around

My best friend told me you're the best trick in town

You didn't know that Rock 'n' Roll burned

So you bought a candle and you loved and you learned

You got the rhythm, you got the speed

Mamma's little baby likes it short and sweet

And now, ah, ah, aw

Once bitten twice shy, babe

Oh, and now, ah, ah, aw

Once bitten twice shy, babe

Hey, hey, aw (and now, ah, ah, aw)

Once bitten twice shy, babe

I didn't know you got a Rock 'n' Roll record

Until I saw your picture on another guy's jacket

You told me I was the only one

And look at you now, well, it's dark as it's dumb

And now, ah, ah, aw

Once bitten twice shy, babe

And now, ah, ah, aw

Once bitten twice shy, babe

Huh, and now (ah, ah, aw)

Once bitten twice shy, babe

(Oh) and now, ah, ah, aw

Once bitten twice shy

(Oh, hey)

(Oh, oh, hey)

(Hey)

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

(Come on, come on, come on, come on)

(Aw, aw)

(Aw)
