Her daddy told her all the facts
|
His momma taught him how to act
|
at puberty they paid their dues
|
the pool-hall was the moulin rouge
|
|
and he likes her skirt
|
and she like his tight levi's
|
fanning flames of the fire
|
that burned higher than the fire in their eyes
|
|
Momma's downtown on her lips
|
Daddy's on a business trip
|
a pinch from momma's treasure chest
|
daddy comes up with the rest
|
|
and some people's kids don't know how fast time flies
|
now their paying for the fire burning higher than the fire in their eyes
|
|
some peoples kids can't see
|
all some people's kids really need
|
is someone to be there
|
to love 'em and to care, about them
|
|
daddy was a rollin' stone
|
momma chose to live alone
|
susie's out there on the wine
|
jimmy was friend of mine
|
|
and some peoples kids gotta sing so it's no surprise
|
that the flame of the fire's burnin' higher than the fire in their eyes
