Sweet Little Fat Girl

[Verse 1]
Sweet little fat girl slept in my bed
Keeping me warm, keeping me fed
Blushing and turning and shaking her head
She saying "Be gentle and love me"

[Verse 2]
Old empty bottles rolled on the floor
I drunk and reeling locked up the door
Young and uncaring for what went before
She saying "Be gentle and love me"

[Bridge]
But love was out calling and just didn't know
That I was there falling with nowhere to go
Down into freedom that took me so low
Not gentle or able to love her

[Verse 3]
Then she was crying soundless and small
I said "Yes tomorrow, well, maybe I'll call"
But soon I was sleeping forgetting it all
She saying "Be gentle and love me"

[Bridge]
But love was out calling and just didn't know
That I was there falling with nowhere to go
Down into freedom that took me so low
Not gentle or able to love her

[Verse 4]
I awoke in the morning and there through the wine
I thought of the pain hers for all time
And I knew that I'd taken what never was mine
She saying "Be gentle and love me"

[Verse 5]
Sweet little fat girl you slept in my bed
Keeping me warm, keeping me fed
Don't you turn from me and don't shake your head
If I say "Be gentle and love me"

[Outro]
If I say "Be gentle and love me"
