I Never Had The One That I Wanted

(album: Jukebox Charlie (And Other Songs That Make The Jukebox Play) - 1967)

I never had the one that I wanted
Never wanted the one that I had
For the one that I had was a good girl
And the one that I wanted was bad

They say that the grass always looks greener
And I guess that's a nature of a man
To let passion have it's way
Never thinking what you'll pay
Ain't it hard
Oh ain't it hard to understand

I never had the one that I wanted...

What makes a man want to flirt with danger
Like a child that's playing with fire
Must the most luscious peach be always out of reach
And the things you can't have you desire

I never had the one that I wanted...
