Lyrics
She said oh meet me out the back when the sun goes down
I'm feeling kind'a lonely and the old mans out of town,
we'll hum a little tune like the coyotes do
may even sneek a peek at my little gold tattoo,
Momma used to say,better stay away from girls like you.
I had no one to teach me bout the bees and the birds
the preacher kept on saying there are three little words,
but she held me down,slapped me around and popped me a pill
and left me lying helpless like a texas road kill
Momma used to say,better stay away from girls like you.
Girls like you can send a man to an early grave
or beg like a sinner that the good lord forgave,
play the come and get me with perfume or a gun,
leave a man to die in the hot desert sun...Yer'
It took me by surprise when I had the upper hand
but you know who came back,to fry me in the pan,
treat a woman right was all I ever knew
I thought tonight she was miss right
to turn my grey sky blue,
Momma used to say,better stay away from girls like you.
Girls like you can send a man to an early grave
or beg like a sinner that the good lord forgave,
play the come and get me with perfume or a gun
leave a man to die in the hot desert sun...Yer'
But Momma use to say,better stay away from girls like you,
Yer' Momma used to say,better stay away from girls like you
Like you.....A ha
