lirik lagu jimmy lafave - sweetheart like you
[verse 1]
well, the pressure’s down, the boss ain’t here
he’s gone north, for a while
they say that vanity got the best of him
but he sure left here in style
by the way, that’s a cute hat
and your smile’s too much to resist
what’s a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
[verse 2]
you know, i once knew a woman who looked like you, baby
she wanted a whole man, not just a half
she used to call me sweet jimmy when i was only a child
you kind of remind me of her when you laugh
there’s trick in this game, got to make the queen disappear
it’s done with a fl!ck of the wrist
what’s a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
[verse 3]
you know, a woman like you should be at home
’cause that’s where you belong
taking care of someone nice, baby
who doesn’t know how to do you no wrong
just how much abuse will you be able to take?
it’s hard to tell with just one kiss
what’s a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
[verse 4]
you got to make a name for yourself, baby
you got to make some tires squeal
you could be known as the most beautiful woman
who ever crawled across cut glass to make a deal
[verse 5]
you know the news of you came down the line
even before you came in the door
they say in your father’s house, there’s many mansions
each one of them got a fireproof floor
snap out of it, baby, people are jealous of you
they smile at your face, but behind your back they hiss
what’s a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
[verse 6]
you got to be an important person, baby
got to have done some evil deed
got to have your own harem when you come in the door
got to play your guitar until your fingers bleed
[verse 7]
they say that patriotism is the last refuge
to which a scoundrel clings
steal a little they call you a thief
steal a lot and they make you king
there’s only one step down from this, baby
it’s called the land of permanent bliss
what’s a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
