She Can't Say That Anymore

(album: Friday Night Blues - 1980)

I never thought I'd live to see the day
Anyone could turn my head the other way
She squirmed beside him, her mind was made
Now she can't say that anymore

I've never done this sort of thing before
Once you get started it ain't all that hard
Then he got up and locked that cheating door
Now she can't say that anymore

At home her porch lights burning as she fumbles for the key
Tonight she jumps the fences but she didn't quite get free
She's as cool as a salesman as he opens the door
She's breaking in a new new routine for the man who walks the floor

Mama insisted that I stay awhile
You're treating me as if I were on trial
I've never lied to you, she kindly smiled
Now she can't say that anymore

At home her porch lights burning as she fumbles for the key
Tonight she jumps the fences but she didn't quite get free
She's as cool as a salesman as he opens the door
She's breaking in a new routine for the man who walks the floor

Now she can't say that anymore
