Lyrics
0:24Say I have known some
0:27Less than I should
0:30Say I have known some
0:33Too well for my own good
0:36Say I'm a saint of mercy
0:39Say I'm a whore
0:42I've been a lot of things
0:45But never yours
0:59I wear my mama's dress
1:02Her finest clothes
1:05Daddy showed me outside
1:07To meet you on the front porch
1:10I laugh at all your jokes
1:13But you look bored
1:16I've been a lot of things but never yours
1:33You never cross my mind
1:36You can be sure
1:39You'll never catch my eye
1:42Waiting for you watching the door
1:45I let you hold me
1:47Dry lip kiss me on the dance hall floor
1:51I've been a lot of things
1:53But never yours
1:57Never yours
2:00Never yours
2:03Never yours
2:06Never yours
2:09Never yours
2:11Never yours
2:14Never yours
2:17Never yours
2:20So you say you won
2:23It was a bet
2:26A game of pool or cards
2:28I repay my family's debt
2:32I let you lie beside me
2:34With no remorse
2:37I've been a lot of things
2:40But never yours
2:54Say I have known some
2:58Less than I should
3:00Say I have known some
3:03Too well for my own good
3:06Say I'm a saint of mercy
3:09Say I'm a whore
3:12I've been a lot of things
3:14But never yours
Say I have known some Less than I should Say I have known some Too well for my own good Say I'm a saint of mercy Say I'm a whore I've been a lot of things But never yours I wear my mama's dress Her finest clothes Daddy showed me outside To meet you on the front porch I laugh at all your jokes But you look bored I've been a lot of things but never yours You never cross my mind You can be sure You'll never catch my eye Waiting for you watching the door I let you hold me Dry lip kiss me on the dance hall floor I've been a lot of things But never yours Never yours Never yours Never yours Never yours Never yours Never yours Never yours Never yours So you say you won It was a bet A game of pool or cards I repay my family's debt I let you lie beside me With no remorse I've been a lot of things But never yours Say I have known some Less than I should Say I have known some Too well for my own good Say I'm a saint of mercy Say I'm a whore I've been a lot of things But never yours
