Slowknife Stiletto

(album: Don't Wake The Riot - 2016)

Darling you're nothing like you use to be
You tell me things that I don't want to hear
Baby please be gentle on me now
Don't you know it's my first time around

Calvin's in a ball, your sweat
Dripping down the backseat floor
Chasing this heart she breaks
Up and down the golden shore
Show you're teeth and
Take just what you need
Don't you know that this boy
He plays for keeps

Lola cut me down with her
Slowknife Stilleto
Early morning came with
Thoughts of Loretta
Lola always knows
Just who's taking her home

Darling your nothing like you use to be
Got what you wanted but not what you need
Baby please be gentle on me now
Don't you know it's my first time around

Calvin's in a ball, your sweat
Dripping down the backseat floor
Chasing this heart she breaks
Up and down the golden shore
Show you're teeth and
Take just what you need
Don't you know that this boy
He plays for keeps

Lola cut me down with her
Slowknife Stilleto
Early morning came with
Thoughts of Loretta
Lola always knows
Just who's taking her home

New morning fever will you heed my call
Their wounded lovers where you drive it home
New morning fever will you heed my call
I know better that to get you alone
Took a little dip
Honey in you're southern tip

Lola cut me down with her
Slowknife Stilleto
Early morning came with
Thoughts of Loretta
Baby please be gentle on me now
Don't you know it's my first time around
