Well I got nine lives baby I just keep comin' back
I got nine lives baby I just keep comin' back oh yeah
I got nine lives and nearly lost them all
But each and every time I really had a ball
I got nine lives baby I just keep comin' back
First time that it happened well how was I to know
She loved me then she left me it was a long long time ago
Numbers eight and seven well they flew by like the wind
Don't stick around for me babe I'm coming back again
I got nine lives baby I just keep comin' back
I got nine lives baby I just keep comin' back
I got nine lives and nearly lost them all
But each and every time I really had a ball
I got nine lives baby I just keep comin' back
I had fun with number six. But baby I got stuck on five
She took all of my money honey and she buried me alive
Four and three got better oh watch out for number two
That one almost killed me now don't you think it can't happen to you
I got just one live left I'm gonna live it all. I'm gonna live it all
But just one last chance baby I gotta drive this last one home
No more whiskey, no more wine, no more women this time
There goes a kitten I'm smitten
I'm a fool again
