lirik lagu charming disaster - showgirl

[verse 1: ellia bisker & jeff morris, both]
mama ran the family grocery store
ran a little card game through the pantry door
and every night as papa snored
she would deal to the boys
he busted in the place around a quarter to two (the night came)
a freshly minted copper with something to prove
“this a bust, n0body move”
i held my mama as she cried

[chorus: ellia bisker & jeff morris]
i just got carried away, i couldn’t help it
i try to get by all by myself
it didn’t have to be this way
got carried away
oooh

[verse 2: ellia bisker & jeff morris]
i worked my way up from the tenement beat
finally made detective after years on the street
but, i could never forget the way she looked at me
a fire burning in her eyes
the next time that i saw her she was all grown up (the night came)
sparkling in spangles at the club deluxe (he waltzed right in)
where the owner was known as king of the mob
and my showgirl she was on his arm

[chorus: ellia bisker & jeff morris]
i just got carried away, i couldn’t help it
i try to get by all by myself
it didn’t have to be this way
got carried away
oooh

[verse 3: ellia bisker & jeff morris]
i noticed when that copper started hanging around
whatever he was looking for, it’s not what he found
he was there on a job for the boys downtown
but that’s not why he was working so hard
he never said a word, but i could see what i saw (the night came)
my heart was at war in a fight to the draw (how could i win)
how could i jump into the arms of the law
all i could do was keep up my guard

[chorus: ellia bisker & jeff morris]
i just got carried away, i couldn’t help it
i try to get by all by myself
it didn’t have to be this way
got carried away
oooh

[bridge: ellia bisker & jeff morris]
the night came (it was just a matter of time)
we moved in (one night he didn’t come home)
the big sting (beauty isn’t a crime)
we hauled them in (why should i go it alone)
the night came (it was just a matter of time)
he moved in (before i won her affection)
a girl needs (so tell me is it a crime?)
protection (i offered protection)

[verse 3: ellia bisker & jeff morris]
my gangster went up river, he was serving hard time
i didn’t forget about him, but he’d never be mine
and my cop was so far from a life of crime
but one day i knew he’d stolen my heart
she loved me like the dream we had so long delayed
then she got a little cough that wouldn’t go away
she didn’t tell a soul ’til it was too late
when she closed her eyes, the angels sang

[chorus: ellia bisker & jeff morris]
i just got carried away, i couldn’t help it
i try to get by all by myself
it didn’t have to be this way
got carried away
oooh

[chorus: ellia bisker & jeff morris]
i just got carried away, i couldn’t help it
i try to get by all by myself
it didn’t have to be this way
got carried away

[refrain: ellia bisker & jeff morris, both]
got carried away
got carried away
got carried away
carried away
carried away
