Lyrics
Left Hand Free
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Ain't shady, baby
I'm hot like the prodigal son
Pick a petal: Eeny, meeny, miny, moe
And flower, you're the chosen one
Well, your left hand's free
And your right's in grip
With another left hand
Watch his right hand slip
Towards his gun
Oh, no
I tackle, we tussle
And oh my days, we're rolling
My right hand's gripped on his
Colt single-action army
Oh, no
Well, your left hand's free
And your right's in grip
With another left hand
Watch his right hand slip
Towards his gun
Oh, no
N-E-O, O-M-G
Gee whiz, girl, you're the one for me
Though your man's bigger than I am
Oh my days, he disagrees
Oh, no
(Speak easy)
Well, my left hand's free
Well, my left hand's free
Well, my left hand's free
Oh, no
Ain't shady, baby
I'm hot like the prodigal son
Pick a petal: Eeny, meeny, miny, moe
And flower, you're the chosen one
Well, your left hand's free
Well, my left hand's free
Well, my left hand's free
Well, my left hand's free
Well, my left hand's free
Oh, no
