Lyrics
(B. david/j. rushing)
I met him in seattle, he was gettin' down on a bottle Telling lies in the blue moon bar His face was hard and travelled, and as the wine unravelled I saw a man who could laugh about his scars
He said, I got shanghaied in vegas by a painted woman I got hog-tied by a hustler in ohio I got derailed by a dancer down in dallas Oh lord, he said, women gonna be the death of me but what a way to go
He said a girl named nancy, once tickled his fancy And backed it up with a fifty dollar smile He laughed when he remembered, the pain of sweet surrender But heartaches never seemed to cramp his style
He said, I got tongue-tied by a teacher in tallahassee I got french-fried by a waitress in idaho I got way-laid by a widow in wyoming Oh lord, he said, women gonna be the death of me but what a way to go
He said, I got shanghaied in vegas by a painted woman I got hog-tied by a hustler in ohio I got derailed by a dancer down in dallas Oh lord, he said, women gonna be the death of me but what a way to go
