Take It From the Boys

[Verse 1]

So scared I never been

Too hard to keep it in

Good girl, independent citizen

But you can't go back

No they never let you back

Same dance different hall

Some guys they get it all

But you can't go back

And they're ready to attack

And you can't go back

And you're terrified

You're gonna fall

[Chorus]

Take it from the boys in the street

Take it from the boys

Take it from the boys that you meet

Making all that noise

They got you sipping

On a dry martini on a rack

They're slipping out

The back door no slack

Maybe it's the same

With every man you meet

You might as well be wise

And take it from the boys

In the streets

Take it from the boys

Take it from the boys

You might as well be wise

And take it from the boys

In the streets

Take it from the boys

Take it from the boys

You might as well be wise

And take it from the boys

[Verse 2]

Do this and promise that

Well that's how they're all about

Watch out, you're dealing with a photostat

When they say they care it's a bonafide affair

Look out, beware of the businessman

Express American, he'll be gone so fast

Cause he travels first class

With his now and powie stash

And his heart unofficial glass

[Chorus X2]

Take it from the boys in the street

Take it from the boys

Take it from the boys that you meet

Making all that noise

They got you sipping

On a dry martini on a rack

They're slipping out

The back door no slack

Maybe it's the same

With every man you meet

You might as well be wise

And take it from the boys

In the streets

Take it from the boys

Take it from the boys

You might as well be wise

And take it from the boys

In the streets

Take it from the boys

Take it from the boys

You might as well be wise

And take it from the boys
