Nine Lives

Well, I got nine lives, baby, I just keep comin' back
I got nine lives, baby, I just keep comin' back
I got nine lives and nearly lost them all
But each and every time I really had a ball
I got nine lives, baby, I just keep comin' back

First time that it happened, well, how was I to know
She loved me then she left me, hey, it was a long, long time ago
Numbers eight and seven, well, they flew by like the wind
Don't stick around for me, baby, I'm coming back again

I got nine lives, baby, I just keep comin' back
I got nine lives, baby, I just keep comin' back
I got nine lives and nearly lost them all
But each and every time I really had a ball
I got nine lives, baby, I just keep comin' back

I had fun with number six, but, baby, I got stuck on five
She took all of my money, honey, and she buried me alive
Four and three got better, well, watch out for number two
That one almost killed me, now, don't you think it can't happen to you

I got just one life left, I'm gonna live it all, live it all
But just one last chance, baby, I gotta drive this lesson home
No more whiskey, no more wine, no more women this time
There goes a kitten, I'm smitten, I'm a fool again
