The Spider and the Fly (feat. James Cotton)

Sittin', thinkin', sinkin', drinkin' Wonderin' what I'd do when I'm through tonight Smokin', mopin', maybe just hopin' Some little girl will pass on by Don't want to be alone but I love my girl at home I remember what she said She said, "my, my, my, don't tell lies, keep fidelity in your head" "My my my, don't tell lies, when you're done you should go to bed" Don't even say hi, like a spider to a fly Jump right ahead and you're dead Sit up, fed up, low down, go 'round Down to the bar at the place I'm at Sittin', drinkin', superficially thinkin' About the rinsed-out blonde on my left Then I say, "hi", like a spider to a fly Rememberin' what my little girl said, alright (...) She was common, flirty, she looked about thirty I woulda' run away but I was on my own She told me later she's a machine operator She said she liked the way I held the microphone I said "my, my" like a spider to a fly Jump right ahead in my web, yeah
