Baby doll, do you believe
They'll catch you when you fall
And when morning comes, the sun is gonna shine
Don't forget your minor key's
Your half lit cigarette
'Cause when morning comes, God knows that you'll be mine
So let me in,
I'm ready to beg and to sing for my sins
Not leave it to chance and sweet coincidence
That's just crazy and you know it's true
Well they said you were long gone
I just laughed and said alright
Bring her home tonight
And I heard you was graciously put on
I just laughed and said good night guess it's alright
Baby doll, the men who hang
Like flowers in you hall
Are asking when your love is gonna show
And who knows why the love you need
Will always pass you by
Well I heard it's true your love is gonna grow
So let me know,
'Cause I can stay, or honey I can go
Just do whatever you tell me so
And find my place there and there I'll stay
Well they said you was burned out, I just laughed
And said come on she's not burned, she's just gone
And it took me too long till I found out
Faces that you know the best, oh well I guess
And they laughed when you said you was leaving
Everybody knows you well
Except for me can't you tell
And you watched from the wings of the late show
Roses by your feet of red
For me you said
Baby doll
Baby doll
Baby doll...
Well there's nothing more to add before I leave
This thing of ours is dead but don't you grieve
Is it me or are they younger every night?
Just because they can it doesn't make it all right
I'm hanging by my teeth waiting on quick relief
While the kids don't sleep for days
I could die in a hundred odd ways
And I'm so sick of hearing how your love for this has died
But don't tell me you could do it if you tried
It's a shame or a sham he's half as old as I am
But don't tell me he could look good if he tried
Well it terrifies the life from out of me
It's really such a lazy way to be
Hiding in the bedroom climbing up the walls
You've got to kick it out of me gently
Till it begs and pleads and crawls
And I'm so sick of hearing how your love for this has died
But don't tell me you could do it if you tried
It's a shame or a sham he's half as old as I am
But don't tell me he could look good if he tried
And I'm so sick of hearing how your love for this has died
But don't tell me you could do it if you tried
It's a shame or a sham he's half as old as I am
But don't tell me he could look good if he tried
And wont you make sure
My mother gets half my weight in gold
Tell her I just did what I was told
Grab your expensive coat and bury it inside
But don't tell me you could do it if you tried

Red eyes, tell me twice Sure I’ll put my hopes on ice Fair skin, empty face Help me keep my nerve in place Read my lips, time slips Slowly from your fingertips Make my night, hold tight Thrill me till my teeth go white Be my myth or be your sin Save me at your own expense Well it’s just like a girl I can keep a boy guessing I’ll wring you by the neck and I’ll teach you such a lesson I’ll bleed from my profession Here is my confession Give me half a chance and you can be my new obsession I’ll take your only sympathy Put me out my misery Blow me one more kiss and baby you can have the best of me Next time we wed I’ll be on my best behavior Next time we wed I’ll be everybody’s savior Next time we wed Darling I’ll be a saint I’ll be wrong when you’re right Keep my mouth shut and lips tight Beg from my toes to my head The next time we wed Tell me this for nothing Make me dignified Kiss me as you’re leaving Just so you can say you tried Make me sentimental Beat me black and blue Hit me up it’s just so simple Darling I’m too good for you Well it’s just like a girl I can keep a boy guessing I’ll wring you by the neck and I’ll teach you such a lesson I’ll bleed from my profession Here is my confession Give me half a chance and you can be my new obsession I’ll take your only sympathy Put me out my misery Blow me one more kiss and baby you can have the best of me Next time we wed I’ll be on my best behavior Next time we wed I’ll be everybody’s savior Next time we wed I’ll be handsome in the daylight Next time we wed Oh honey I will lose my stage fright Next time we wed I won’t specialize in failure Next time we wed I’ll be everybody’s savior Next time we wed Honey I’ll be a saint I’ll be wrong when you’re right Keep my mouth shut and lips tight Beg from my toes to my head The next time we wed The next time we wed The next time we wed The next time we wed
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
You can find her scratching around in the dark
Just another candle chasing a spark
You can find her screaming along with the ghosts
Reminds you she's the one you needed the most
And then you're out there on your own again
No one believes you when you lie
I still see all the old girls now and then
Catching the moonlight as they cry
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
The wrong way round's the right way up when she calls
You can laugh but it won't mean nothing at all
Yes you can find her scratching away in her room
Stumblin' round by the light of the stragglers moon
And then you're out there digging holes again
Six million people can't be wrong
Some day you'll buy the perfect soul and then
you can get back where you belong
And then you're out there on your own again
No one believes you when you lie
I still see all the old girls now and then
catching the moonlight when they cry
