High And Dry
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.
Over and over
You're such a shy girl, see you every day
Oh me oh my girl, don't know what to say
Have you lost your voice?
Are you spoilt for choice?
My reputation's strictly for the birds
Don't believe in everything you've heard
How I operate
You ain't got long to wait - we'll do it
Chorus
Over and over (don't you turn me over)
Then I love 'em and leave 'em high
Over and over (don't you turn me over)
Then I love 'em and leave 'em high
High and dry
You take me home and I promise I'll behave
Won't wake your ma, I'll be silent as the grave
You'll be the first to crack
Then you'll want me back - to do it
Chorus R E P E A T
You're such a shy girl, see you every day
Oh me oh my girl, don't know what to say
You want equality
You won't get none of that from me - we'll do it
Chorus R E P E A T
I leave 'em, I leave 'em - high and dry
I love 'em, I leave 'em - I love 'em, I leave 'em high
I love 'em, I leave 'em, I heave 'em - high and dry
I leave 'em
I gonna leave 'em high
