John Cougar Mellencamp - Get A Leg Up lyrics
Your rating:
Keep your mind straight ahead Don't get no funny ideas about me Or you'll wish that you were dead That's what I'm thinking she must be thinking The girl I spent 53 bucks on last night She gives me a look from the corner of her eye That says, "Boy, keep acting right." How surprised was I When she leaned over and whispered in my ear Get a leg up Get a leg over boy Get a lef up What's the matter Are you shy, shy, shy? I'm pretty good with first impressions But sometimes I'm not always right I pulled the car to the shoulder of the road To see what she had in mind Want me to spend the night Hey lover boy you know I will And my best girlfriend down the road Together we will thrill ya And I'm thining to myself I could be lucky Pierre tonight If I could get a leg up If I could get a leg over boy You know I ain't that handsome But you know I ain't shy, shy, shy The rest of the night went on and on And the moral to this song Don't go making hasty judgments Because sometimes they could be wrong Nothing wrong with a good time Just keep yourself protected, make a list And you can bet your life that the women don't know The little girrls are acting like this So the next time a young one moves up And she whispers in your ear Get a leg up Get a leg over boy Get a leg up Now don't you be shy, shy, shy ----------------------------------------------------
