Angels Once Bitten Twice Shy
(Ian Hunter) Well the times gettin' hard for you little girl I'm a hummin' and a strummin' all over God's world you don't remember when you got your last meal and you forgot just how a woman feels you didn't know what rock n' roll was until you met a drummer on a greyhound bus I got there in the nick of time before he got his hands across your state line well in the middle of the night on the open road and the heater don't work and it's oh-so cold you're gettin' tired, you're lookin' kinda peaked the music off the street, drive you off your feet you didn't know how rock n' roll looked until you caught your sister with a guy from the crew half-way home in the parking lot by the look in her eyes she was givin' what she got Once bitten twice shy, babe Woman you're a mess gonna die in your sleep all the blood on my hand and my Les Paul heat I can't leave you home cos you're runnin' around my best friend told me you're the best trick in town You didn't know that rock n' roll burned so you bought a candle and you loved and you learned you got the rhythm, you got the speed mamma's little baby likes it short and sweet Once bitten twice shy, babe I didn't know ya got a rock n' roll record until a saw your picture on another guy's jacket you told me I was the only one and look at you now, well it's dark as it's dumb Once bitten twice shy, babe -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
