lyrics

she comes in uninvited
in a dress that wraps her in crime
but i like it, it is so…
you try to speak as you watch her pass
but her eyes they kill ya fast
she's the wind and she loves to blow
but she settles easy

she wears a look that is meaningless
but it makes you beg for more
well, you know that i've seen it well
she sits every day in the same spot
there are days when i know she wants
to be giving me all of herself

but she settles easy
for the first mess to shows his face
she settles easy
drop a tip and i'm on my way

swerving around the bend,
you’ve got a million dollar sweat, oh lord
arrested by arrogance,
you’ve got to resist the slacks and jest, you gotta

come on down, sit yourself with me
i'm swollen with heavy eyes
oh, they drop to the floor
now, pack your bags, you are coming with me
i swear i'm the dollar's dime
but i know what i want

i settle real easy
i'm the first mess to show his face
i'll settle if only
you're the dame that is coming my way
