Richard Thompson - All Buttoned Up lyrics
Your rating:
I got a girl - best girl in the world But she won’t give me a taste of it Saving her bed - maidenhead That’s what I call a waste of it Crosses her arms - to hide all her charms Like she’s living in a nunnery Gives me a wink - drive me to drink I know she’s only making fun of me She’s All Buttoned Up All Buttoned Up, no place to go She don’t mind a squeeze - if I say please I might even manage a kiss of her But I’ll get a slap - if I sit her on my lap I call that so remiss of her She’s All Buttoned Up All Buttoned Up, no place to go She hates the stuff I bring her She wants diamonds on her finger She wouldn’t let me in Frothing at the mouth and barking On all fours like Rin Tin Tin My girl Kate - she wants me to wait But I got urges, don’t I? I got desires - raging fires But I’ll do the right thing, won’t I? She’s All Buttoned Up All Buttoned Up, no place to go She changes with the weather She keeps her knees together But she dresses so racy Drawing Man into temptation With everything silky, satiny, lacy I got a girl - best girl in the world But she won’t give me a taste of it Saving her bed - maidenhead That’s what I call a waste of it She’s All Buttoned Up All Buttoned Up, no place to go She’s All Buttoned Up All Buttoned Up, no place to go
