Women & Children First Lyrics - 1980

[ Buy Women & Children First ]

Well, back in the past when i was treated so coldly,
My love life was a darn disgrace.
Needed someone to love and hold me.
That's one of the reasons that i was out of place.
So this is love! well, she finally kissed me.
Had me all worked up inside.
I was in love, but cupid missed me.
She up and left, and i almost died.
But i was young and i was far from lonely.
I been that way for a long, long year.
Needed a girl to call my one and only.
Is that you?
You think you got the int'rest.
C'mon and take the time.
'cause you know i wanna be
Yours in a simple rhyme.
Well, ain't life grand when you finally hit it?
I'm always a sucker for a real good time.
Woke up in life to find i almost missed it.
Ain't i glad that love is blind?
But i was young and i was far too crazy.
Been that way for a long, long time.
Needed a girl, but i was just too lazy.
Now that i've found you:
You think you got the int'rest.
C'mon and take the time.
I'm gonna be
Yours in a simple
Rhyme,
Rhyme.
She made her mountains sing.
Birds against an icy sky.
And i heard bells ringin'
I think i heard an angel sigh. and she said:
There'll be times,
There will be times
You're gonna hear the angels singin'
"ah.
Ah.
Ah."
You think you got the int'rest.
C'mon and take the time.
I'm gonna be
Yours in a simple
Rhyme,
Rhyme,
Rhyme.
