Out from St. Louis I wasn`t choosy I just wanted to get Back on the road I hitched in cars And worked in bars Lookin` for a place To lay down my load I met a lady, a shady lady And someone told her I was all on my own She poured a beer And said when I`m finished here Hang around ‘cause I`m taking you home Don`t worry I`ll treat you all right Don`t worry You can stay all night I thought it was any easy ride But I didn`t know where I was until I got inside She said, ok sonny Give me your money And don`t start any foolin` around I said what, I said what Don`t you think you`re Turning me upside down She said, I don`t care I`ve been everywhere And I`ve not been looking for you But I`ll take you in And give you a spin You`ll know some tricks By the time we get through Shady lady You want it all your own way Shady lady You won`t let go of your prey Shady lady Eat me up and spit me out But let`s get started now I know what you`re talking about Now in the morning As the day was dawning Shady asked me if I`d stay there awhile I said stay, baby no way But I couldn`t keep myself From a smile I said now no bye-bye’s Go in and dry your eyes That ain`t fittin` For a lady like you Why not be smart And give your life another start But take care now Whatever you do Shady lady I`m on my way Shady lady We`ll meet again one day And don`t worry `cause when we do I`m gonna make sure That there ain`t Very much left of you |
