[Verse 1]
She showed her navel
She wore the label
She wore it thigh-high
Old-time sticky lipstick
Knocking at my door
I just turn up the hi-fi
[Chorus]
Well, it's a plain shame
It took me all this time to learn
(So long to love)
Well it's a plain shame
No matter which way you turn
[Verse 2]
She'd like to taste me
She'd like to waste me
She'd like to see me sky-high
New York to Boston
Same in Houston
I just say bye-bye
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
She said, "I know it's late to
But I'd really like to play tunes
On your guitar"
"Let's get arrested
Want to be molested
Who cares how old
You are?"
[Chorus][x2]
