Sit back down where you belong
In the corner of my bar, with your high heels on
Sit back down on the couch where we
Made love the first time and you said to me there's
Something, something about this place
(Something)
Something 'bout lonely nights and my lipstick on your face
(Something)
Something, something about my cool Nebraska guy
Yeah, something about, baby, you and I
You got your high brow, shoes on your feet
And you wear 'em around like it ain't (neat)
But you don't know the way that you look
When your steps make that much noise...shh
I got you all figured out
You need everyone's eyes just to feel seen Behind your makeup nobody knows who you even are Who do you think that you are ?
Hangin' 'round downtown by myself
And I've had too much caffeine, and I was thinkin' 'bout myself
And then there she was, in platform double suede
Yeah, there she was
Like disco lemonade
I knew a man, Bojangles, and he danced for you
In worn out shoes.
With silver hair, a ragged shirt and baggy pants,
The old soft shoe.
He jumped so high, jumped so high, then he lightly touched down.
She handed me a heart-shaped locket that said
"To thine own self be true" And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl across
The toe of my high-heeled shoe
It sounded like somebody else that was talking
Asking Mama, "What do I do?"
She said, "Just be nice to the gentlemen, Fancy
They'll be nice to you"
