Shady Lady

Out from st. louis I wasn't choosy I just wanted to get Back on the road I hitched in cars And worked in bars Lookin' for a place To lay down my load I met a lady, a shady lady And someone told her I was all on my own She poured a beer And said when I'm finished here Hang around 'cause I'm taking you home Don't worry I'll treat you all right Don't worry You can stay all night I thought it was any easy ride But I didn't know where I was until I got inside She said, ok sonny Give me your money And don't start any foolin' around I said what, I said what Don't you think you're Turning me upside down She said, I don't care I've been everywhere And I've not been looking for you But I'll take you in And give you a spin You'll know some tricks By the time we get through Shady lady You want it all your own way Shady lady You won't let go of your prey Shady lady Eat me up and spit me out But let's get started now I know what you're talking about Now in the morning As the day was dawning Shady asked me if I'd stay there awhile I said stay, baby no way But I couldn't keep myself From a smile I said now no bye-bye's Go in and dry your eyes That ain't fittin' For a lady like you Why not be smart And give your life another start But take care now Whatever you do Shady lady I'm on my way Shady lady We'll meet again one day And don't worry 'cause when we do I'm gonna make sure That there ain't Very much left of you
