Ian Hunter - Once Bitten, Twice Shy

(Hunter)Well the times are gettin' hard For you little girl I'm a-hummin' and a-strummin'All over God's world You can't remember when You got your last meal And you don't know Just how a woman feels You didn't know what Rock-n-roll was Until you met my drummer On a grey tour bus I got there in the nick of time Before he got his hands Across your state line Now it's the middle of the night On the open road And the heater don't work And it's oh so cold You're lookin' tired You're lookin' kinda beat The rhythm of the street Sure knocks you off your feet You didn't know how rock-n-roll looked Until you caught your sister With the guys from the group Halfway home in the parking lot By the look in her eye She was giving what she got My, my, my Once bitten, twice shy babe My, my, my Once bitten, twice shy babe My, my, my Once bitten, twice shy babe Woman you're a mess Gonna die in your sleep There's blood on my amp And my Les Paul's beat Can't keep you home you're messin' around My best friend told me You're the best lick in town You didn't know that rock-n-roll burned So you bought a candle And you lived and you learned You got the rhythm You got the speed Mama's little baby Likes it short and sweet CHORUSI didn't know you had a rock-n-roll record Until I saw your picture On another guy's jacket You told me I was the only one But look at you now It's dark and you're gone My, my, my Once bitten, twice shy
