Lyrics
Classy Girls
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.
Well, she was standing in a bar
I said: "hello how do you do?"
She handed me a beer with a kangaroo
She spoke of places I had never been
That she had travelled to
And we slow danced alone to faster tunes
I made her laugh, I made a pass
I showed her my half-dollar ring, she said:
"That's pretty cool
But classy girls don't kiss in bars, you fool."
So later on the crowd calmed down
And I believe it was as if
Something drew me closer to her lips
Picture my surprise when I had
Tried to lean in for a kiss
And she just smiled and turned her head down quick
I asked her why, and she replied
It was nothing I was doing wrong
It's just what it is
But classy girls, don't kiss in bars like this
No, classy girls don't kiss in bars
Boys will break their backs and hearts
But it's all right
The hardest part is through
