«Her turn to deal»

Tekst: Pacheco/Albrigtsen    Musikk: Pacheco/Albrigtsen

HE’S BEEN OUT LATE EVERY NIGHT
WALTZING THROUGH THE NEON LIGHTS
LEAVING HER ALONE BESIDE THE PHONE
SHE WARNED HIM SO MANY TIMES
SHE’S A WOMAN IN HER PRIME
SHE CAN FIND SOME COMFORT ON HER OWN

SHE GOT ALL DOLLED UP IN BLACK
AND BOUGHT HERSELF A VELVET HAT
AND DROVE DOWN TO A BAR ON BASIN STREET
SHE ORDERED A DOUBLE SCOTCH
CROSSED HER LONG LEGS,LOOKIN’ HOT
A SCARLET GARDER WRAPPED ABOVE HER KNEE

SHE’S LEAVING WITH THE NEXT GOOD LOOKING GUY TO CATCH HER EYE
THE WAY SHE’S LOOKIN’-SHE WON’T HAVE TO TRY
TONIGHT HE’S GONNA COME HOME TO AN EMPTY BED FOR REAL
TONIGHT HE’S GONNA KNOW HOW BAD A BROKEN HEART CAN FEEL
SHE’S HAD ENOUGH-SHE’S CALLED HIS BLUFF-NOW IT’S HER TURN TO DEAL

THE BAND WENT ON A TEN O’FIVE
THE RYTHM SECTION IT DID DRIVE
SHE CAUGHT THE EYE OF EVERYBODY THERE
SHE NEVER FELT SO GOOD BEFORE
SO CONFIDENT,SO SELF ASSURED
WITH MEN LIKE HONEYBEES AROUND HER CHAIR

SHE’S LEAVING....(2X)
