You Had Me At Hello

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.

I went to the desert 'cause I wanted to fire my pistol

I wanted to see what it would feel like to be invincible

But a man I met said "Boy you ain't seen nothing yet

Let me take you for a ride"

So I got in his truck and he took me to the Mustang range

I paid my forty bucks to the girl at the window pane

Under the cover of darkness and behind my disguise

She said, "Kid won't you come inside?"

She said, "Don't you worry I won't tell anybody about it

You can do what you like until the morning light

I can be who you want me to be

Don't you worry your sweet little head about it

I'll have you and then you know you'll have me back

You can have me then but then you had me at hello"

I want you to love me as if you've got no principles

I want you to love me as if love is invincible

Under the cover of darkness and behind me disguise

I could tell that she could see my eyes

You had me on the kitchen floor, you had me on the bed

You had me by the neck on the rack with the tiger head

You had me fast, you had me slow

You had me on the pillow where you lie at night and dream

You had me dressing up in your Alexander McQueens

You had me 'til they let me go

You had me at hello

She said, "Don't you worry I won't tell anybody about it

You can do what you like until the morning light

I can be who you want me to be

I want you to love me so don't feel sorry about it

I can hold you tight all through the lonely night

I can be who you want me to be

Don't you worry your sweet little head about it

I'll have you and then you know you'll have me back

You can have me then and then I'll have you back

You can have me then but then you had me at hello
